Step inside this charming cottage and you’re immediately welcomed by an abundance of original period features. The lounge sets the tone with its striking stone fireplace, complete with an inset multi-fuel stove, and beautiful parquet flooring that adds both character and warmth. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed, showcasing bespoke cabinetry paired with solid oak work surfaces, and seamlessly leads into a useful utility room with direct access to the garden.
Upstairs, the first floor offers two delightful double bedrooms and a stylish modern bathroom, perfectly balancing charm with comfort. Outside, a low-maintenance courtyard opens through a gate to a picturesque garden, mainly laid to lawn and bordered by an array of mature trees and shrubs.
DeVitre Cottages offer something truly unique. Tucked away on Ashton Road, this cottage enjoys a peaceful, semi-rural setting while still being only a few minutes’ drive from Lancaster’s historic city centre. Surrounded by greenery and open space, the location combines the best of both worlds: a countryside feel with the convenience of nearby amenities. Booths supermarket, Lancaster Golf Club, and two of the area’s major employers, the hospital and university, are all within easy reach.
Over the past decade, the owners have carried out a series of considered improvements, thoughtfully redesigning the layout and upgrading the finish to create a home that flows beautifully and offers effortless modern living.
