The property features two generously sized double bedrooms along with a versatile third bedroom, currently utilized as a home office—perfect for modern remote working arrangements.

Inside, the home welcomes you through a UPVC double-glazed front door into an inviting hallway that leads to a bright living area enhanced by large windows allowing natural light to flow in. The spacious kitchen at the rear offers ample storage and preparation space while remaining adaptable for future upgrades or renovations. Upstairs are three well-sized bedrooms finished in neutral tones and a modern three-piece bathroom suite that provides essential utility. The property's desirable location further enhances its investment potential; with nearby transport options including bus services and Lancaster's West Coast Main Line station making commutes hassle-free. With universities, shopping areas, and schools all close by, this home represents not only comfortable living but also an exciting opportunity for renovation.
