3 bed semi-detached bungalow for sale

Newlands Road, Lancaster LA1

Location

Newlands Road sits within a consistently popular pocket of south Lancaster, well regarded for its quiet residential feel and open outlooks. This is an area that attracts buyers looking for a bit more space and a slower pace, without feeling cut off from everyday life. Local shops, bus routes and essential amenities are close at hand, while road links towards Scotforth, the A6 and the city centre make getting around straightforward.

What really adds to the appeal is the sense of openness. From the front, there are pleasant views across to nearby fields where horses are often seen, giving the street a semi-rural edge that’s increasingly hard to find this close to the city. It’s a location that suits a wide range of buyers - from downsizers and professionals to those wanting flexible space for working from home - all drawn by the balance of peace, practicality and outlook.

Property description

Set back from the road behind a front garden and driveway, this three-bedroom dormer-style semi-detached bungalow offers flexible accommodation arranged over two floors. The side entrance opens into an L-shaped hallway, immediately giving a sense of space and a neutral, well-kept interior that feels ready to move into while still offering scope to personalise.

The main living room is a generous L-shaped space with room to both relax and dine comfortably. Laminate flooring runs throughout, and a gas fire set within a stone-effect surround provides a clear focal point. A large picture window to the front draws in plenty of natural light and frames the open views across the road, making this an easy room to spend time in throughout the day.

To the rear, the kitchen is fitted with white shaker-style units with tongue-and-groove detailing, pale worktops, an inset sink, built-in oven and hob, and space for appliances. From here, the conservatory extends the living space, wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glazing and overlooking the west-facing rear garden. It works well as an additional sitting area, dining space or simply somewhere to enjoy the garden outlook in all seasons. The main bedroom is also located on the ground floor, a comfortable double with direct access to the shower room, which is fitted with a white three-piece suite and offers the option to reinstate a bath if desired.

Upstairs, two further double bedrooms provide excellent flexibility. One sits to the front and has built-in furniture, having previously been used as a home office, while the rear bedroom spans the width of the house and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the garden. Externally, the rear garden is enclosed and mainly laid to lawn, offering a manageable but usable outdoor space. A detached garage and driveway provide valuable off-street parking and storage.
