Property Description

Introducing an exquisite 5-bedroom mid-terraced period property. If you are looking for a period property this grand residence boasts a flawless fusion of Victorian charm and modern luxury with period features at every turn all lovingly restored to a very high standard. From the moment you step through the grand entrance, there is literally not a hint that there’s a bustling City nearby. The hallway reveals the original Victorian tiled floor, greeting you with an air of sophistication and period charm.

The enchanting first reception room is a true masterpiece, featuring a new Akoya wood sympathetically renewed sash window, original ornate cornice, and picture rails, all complemented by a fabulous multi-fuel fire the whole room exudes warmth and character. The winding spindled balustrade staircase, embellished with an original glass ceiling light on the top floor, serves as a captivating centrepiece, inviting you to explore further.

Moving seamlessly into the second reception room, the ambience transitions to a stylish and homely space that retains its period charm, complete with another inviting multi-fuel fire. The marble and fossil fire surround further confirms the standard achieved throughout.

The heart of this home lies within the bespoke Scott Hornby kitchen, where culinary dreams come to life using the Professional Range multi burner hob, this fabulous space offers the perfect space for family dining and entertaining.

From the kitchen we step through the bi-folding doors opening into a private and tranquil garden. Outside, the beautiful mature garden, with its seasonally planted flora and original cobbled path, provides a peaceful retreat for relaxation and outdoor enjoyment. Perfect privacy abounds, with barely a sound beyond birdsong. The gardeners paradise is further enhanced with a small court yard area accessed from the dining room.

The upper levels of the property are equally impressive, with the master bedroom accessed through double doors and further enhanced by lovingly refurbished sash windows and traditional cast iron radiators. Views from the double windows across Lancaster towards the Cathedral. The large family bathroom exudes luxury, featuring a double shower and a pristine white porcelain suite for a spa-like experience.

Marketing. Every single property listing on Rightmove is individually assessed over a 6 month period. Agents' websites are assessed including their social media marketing. Client reviews are also taken into consideration.

Service. Every agent has to go through a rigorous process of mystery shops to identify the service levels they offer.

Results. Agents' Sales and lettings results are checked. Did the property sell/let? How long did it take? Did it fall through?

Every single estate agent that advertises on Rightmove is automatically entered. That is over 15,000 different companies and 22,000 individual offices.. Less than 1% of agents in the UK achieved a double-gold status. This means they are ranked as gold-standard agents in both sales and lettings.
