Hastings Road, Lancaster

A spacious three-bedroom stone-fronted terraced home with plenty of scope for further improvement and personalisation.
The property retains a number of traditional features, including a bay-fronted lounge, decorative coving, period-style fireplaces, exposed timber floorboards and a characterful hallway with an arched opening and spindle staircase.
The accommodation is well proportioned throughout, with two separate reception rooms, a long kitchen to the rear, three bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom.
The house would particularly suit a buyer looking for a property they can update to their own taste, with much of the accommodation already stripped back and ready for the next stage of refurbishment.
Externally, there is a small enclosed frontage and a rear yard with additional outbuilding/storage space.

A generous principal reception room positioned at the front of the house.

The wall-mounted combination boiler is also housed within the kitchen.
Although functional, the room offers clear scope for updating and reconfiguration to create a more contemporary kitchen arrangement.
