Description

Nestled at the end of a serene cul-de-sac off Station Road, this historic property, originally the residence of Caton's Station Master, offers a glimpse into mid-19th century architecture while presenting an excellent opportunity for renovation. Once part of the Lancaster to Wennington railway line until its closure in 1966, Station House is set amidst lush greenery and is conveniently located near the Lune Valley cycle path, making it perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. The vibrant village centre of Caton, with its various shops and pubs, is just a short walk away, while Lancaster is easily accessible by road or public transport. Inside, the home boasts a spacious layout brimming with potential for modernisation. The entrance leads you into a generous bay-fronted lounge featuring exposed beams and an impressive stone fireplace that reflects its historical significance. The kitchen and dining area are situated at the rear and include oak cabinetry along with direct access to a bright conservatory that overlooks the expansive gardens. This property comprises three bedrooms — two sizeable doubles and one smaller single — with the master bedroom equipped with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. Additional facilities include another bathroom, separate WC, and utility space. Although many original features remain intact, including timber doors and deep window sills, significant refurbishment is necessary to bring this home up to contemporary standards. The exterior provides a large private garden bordered by mature trees and hedging as well as a double garage, ensuring ample off-street parking on the gravel driveway. With plenty of room for landscaping or even potential extensions (subject to appropriate permissions), this property presents an exciting canvas for investors or buyers looking to personalise their living space.
