Description
Esthwaite Gardens, Lancaster, LA1 3RG
The Location
Esthwaite Gardens is a quiet cul-de-sac of modern homes on the edge of Freehold, well placed for families and professionals wanting a peaceful setting without feeling cut off from the city. Lancaster city centre is within easy reach, along with everyday shops, schools, public transport and road connections towards the M6. What sets this particular position apart is its elevated, west-facing outlook. From the upper floor, the view reaches across Lancaster’s rooftops towards the Castle and Town Hall clock tower, before continuing towards the Heysham coastline, Morecambe Bay and, on a clear day, the South Lakeland hills. It is a location that balances practical day-to-day living with a genuine sense of space, changing skies and memorable evening views.
The Property
This four-bedroom semi-detached home offers far more than its modern exterior first suggests, combining generous living space with a remarkable top-floor room, thoughtfully planted gardens and flexible areas for home working.
The entrance hallway has solid wood flooring that continues into the main living room, with a useful ground-floor WC nearby. At the front, the kitchen is fitted with soft sage-green cottage-style units, arranged around an L-shaped work surface with space for a dining table. An internal opening with shutters connects the kitchen to the living room, allowing conversation and natural light to move easily between the two spaces.
The living room is a comfortable, sociable room centred around a multi-fuel stove. Built-in shelving and window seating provide useful storage, while a large rear window and French doors look into the garden. It is an easy room to imagine being used throughout the year, from quiet evenings beside the fire to summer days with the doors left open.
The first floor provides three bedrooms, including two good doubles and a single room suited to a child, nursery or study. A three-piece bathroom has a shower over the bath.
Above, the converted loft creates the home’s defining space. Measuring approximately 13'0" by 12'9", it works equally well as a fourth bedroom, studio or substantial home office. Multiple roof windows bring in excellent natural light and frame wide views across Lancaster, Morecambe Bay and the surrounding coastline.
Outside, the front and rear gardens have been designed around edible planting, wildlife and seasonal interest. The rear garden includes a raised seating area and a more natural forest-garden layout. The former garage has been divided to provide storage at the front and a separate garden room to the rear, ideal for work, exercise or hobbies.
