The Location

The Residence on Kershaw Drive is one of south Lancaster’s most distinctive addresses. Set within beautifully converted period buildings, this development combines architectural presence with a calm, landscaped setting.

Williamson Park is close by for weekend walks and open views across the city, and the M6 is easily accessible for those commuting further afield. There is Co-Op Convenience store close by and just a short walk is Lancaster Leisure Park which includes the Farm Shop, Cafe, Hairdressers and Lancaster Brewery. The development itself has a settled, well-kept feel, attracting professionals, downsizers and those looking for something a little different from the ordinary apartment. It’s a location that balances practicality with character.

The Property

Step inside and the sense of space immediately stands out. This ground floor apartment is arranged over split levels, creating a layout that feels interesting and far from standard. The main lounge is bright and welcoming, with high ceilings and a feature internal window that allows light to travel between levels. From here, doors open directly onto a private terrace overlooking the central courtyard – an ideal spot for morning coffee or unwinding at the end of the day.

A short set of steps leads down to the kitchen, neatly fitted with contemporary white cabinetry and generous worktop space. There is room for a small dining table, making it a sociable area for everyday meals. The open connection back to the lounge ensures you’re never cut off from guests while cooking.

From the lounge, steps rise to the bathroom and bedroom. The bathroom has been updated with striking tiled walls and a modern walk-in shower, pedestal basin and WC, creating a clean, hotel-inspired feel. The bedroom is a comfortable king size with soft neutral décor and fitted storage, positioned to feel tucked away from the main living space. Even through it is a one bedroom apartment, the current owners have a sofa in the spacious lounge which converts into a king sized bed, enabling for visitors to stay over night.
