Nestled in the very heart of Heysham Village, this enchanting Grade II listed cottage offers a truly special home, rich in history, charm, and character. Believed to date back to circa 1633, every room reflects its heritage, with an abundance of original features and timeless appeal throughout.
The sense of warmth begins in the inviting sitting room, where a striking stone fireplace with an inset log burner takes centre stage. Exposed beams, feature stone walls, and charming alcoves create a space that feels both characterful and welcoming.
This flows seamlessly into a cottage-style kitchen–diner, complete with its own stone fireplace and wood-burning stove. With crafted cabinetry, a combination of wood and stone flooring, and a range-style cooker, it’s a space perfectly suited to cosy gatherings and everyday living.
A practical coat and boot room leads conveniently out to the garden, perfect for wet boots and muddy paws alike! Upstairs, three double bedrooms await, each as enchanting as the ground floor, along with a wonderful family bathroom complete with a claw-foot bath.
Outside, the generous rear garden enhances the sense of tranquillity, accompanied by a utility room, an attached kiln room, and a charming summerhouse, all with power and light.
This magical cottage sits within walking distance of the sweeping bay and the historic St Peter’s Church, where breathtaking seascapes stretch out towards the distant Cumberland mountains. Heysham Village also offers a welcoming local pub, useful amenities, and well-regarded primary and secondary schools. For commuters, the Bay Gateway provides swift access to the M6 and Lancaster City.
