Ashton Road, Lancaster, LA1

Location

There's something special about DeVitre Cottages. Located on Ashton Road, this is a home which feels semi-rural, yet is just a short drive from the heart of our historic city. This is a home which is surrounded by greenery. You are on the edge of the countryside, your back garden backs onto fields with cows, yet you are still just a short drive from Booths Supermarket, Lancaster Golf Club and two of the area's key employers - the hospital and university.

Families will be pleased to know that Ripley School is just a 5 minute walk.

About this home

Situated in a sought-after location, this stone-built two-bedroom period home carries a rich history, once under the ownership of the NHS over 30 years ago. In the past decade, the current owners have meticulously upgraded and redesigned the property to enhance functionality and flow, creating a seamless living experience.

Enter through the pale sage green door into the inviting living room, adorned with high ceilings and the original parquet wood floor. A cosy wood-burning stove is nestled within a stone fireplace, exuding warmth and character. The lounge includes original cupboards and built-in bookshelves.

The kitchen boasts modern white high gloss units with integrated appliances and stylish solid oak work surfaces, chosen to suit the character of the home but with a more modern twist. To the rear, a practical laundry area featuring a Belfast sink and laundry provisions adds convenience to the home.

Upstairs, two generously sized double bedrooms await both with pleasing �green� outlooks, along with a refreshing white three-piece bathroom suite elegantly finished with Metro-style tiling.

Externally, the property offers a charming front courtyard and a secluded rear courtyard with additional outbuildings for storage. Pass through the rear courtyard gate to discover a beautiful garden, currently open to the neighbouring property but easily adaptable for privacy with a fence.

This home presents a blend of historical charm and contemporary upgrades, providing a comfortable retreat in a serene environment.
