About this property

  • Freehold Property

  • Impressive Victorian end-of-terrace home

  • Sought-after Lily Grove setting in Scotforth

  • Four well-proportioned bedrooms

  • Bay-fronted living room with period fireplace

  • Spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room

  • Spacious bathroom with freestanding roll-top bath

Location

Lily Grove is one of Scotforth’s most attractive residential addresses, a quiet horseshoe-shaped street characterised by handsome Victorian homes, mature trees and established greenery. Tucked away from the busier routes through South Lancaster, it offers a peaceful setting while remaining exceptionally convenient for Lancaster University, the University of Cumbria and the Royal Lancaster Infirmary.

Scotforth is particularly popular with families and professionals, with Lancaster’s girls’ and boys’ grammar schools, Booths supermarket, local shops and everyday amenities all within easy reach. Lancaster city centre, the mainline railway station, Williamson Park and the Lancaster Canal are also readily accessible, while nearby road links provide straightforward access towards the M6 and surrounding countryside.

Property Information

An impressive four-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace home, arranged over four floors including a converted cellar. Beautifully presented throughout, the house combines generous proportions with a wealth of period detail, including an original Victorian tiles entrance hall, stripped internal doors, deep skirting boards, decorative cornicing and cast-iron fireplaces.

The ground floor begins with a traditional entrance porch and hallway. To the front is an elegant bay-fronted living room, where high ceilings, detailed cornicing and a cast-iron fireplace provide an attractive focal point.

At the rear, the kitchen and dining room have been opened into one substantial sociable space. The dining area retains another cast-iron fireplace and built-in shelving, while the Shaker-style kitchen provides generous worktop and storage space, a range-style cooker and breakfast seating. French doors connect the room directly with the rear garden. A useful utility room sits beyond.

The first floor has two generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom spans the front of the house, with a wide bay window overlooking Lily Grove, exposed floorboards and a feature cast-iron fireplace. The rear bedroom is another well-proportioned double overlooking the garden (currently used as a home office). There is also a spacious main bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath, together with a separate shower room/WC.

Two further bedrooms occupy the second floor. The top floor has plenty of character from its sloping ceilings and roofline, while natural light is provided through a combination of windows and rooflights.

The converted cellar adds valuable flexibility. Previously used by the family as a home office, gym and teenage snug, it is currently used predominantly for storage but offers excellent additional space away from the main living areas.

Outside, there is a small garden to the front, while the rear garden is a real feature of the home. A stone flagged patio leads into an established garden with mature trees, deep planted borders and gravelled seating areas, creating a particularly private and leafy setting. Although north-facing, its open aspect allows sunlight to reach the garden from the west throughout the day. A summer house is currently positioned within the garden but is not included in the sale.

Garden

The rear garden is a particularly impressive feature of the property, combining mature planting with a series of well-planned areas for sitting, dining and entertaining. Stone flagged paving immediately behind the house creates a generous terrace, with steps and gravelled pathways leading through deep, established borders filled with shrubs, ferns, hydrangeas and mature trees. Stone boundary walls add further character and privacy, while several seating areas allow different parts of the garden to be enjoyed throughout the day. Towards the far end is a more secluded gravelled seating area alongside the summer house, surrounded by greenery and creating a lovely place to relax. Although north-facing, the garden benefits from sunlight coming across from the west, with its length and different seating areas helping to make the most of the changing light.
