Location
Bumble Cottage sits within a quiet and sought-after development on Bailrigg Lane, a stone’s throw from Lancaster University and just a short drive or cycle-route into the city centre. The setting offers a blend of rural surroundings with excellent access to the M6 and key transport links, making it ideal for professionals and families alike. Set within a courtyard of characterful conversions, this is a property that offers privacy, charm and convenience in equal measure.
Property Description
Converted in 2002 by respected local builder Mick Stainton, this attractive stone-built former bank barn is arranged over split levels and features a well-considered layout. On entering the vestibule, character doors open into a generous hallway. To the right is a spacious lounge with a feature arched barn window and a gas-effect stove set into a white-washed brick fireplace. Step down to a second reception room currently used as a dual workspace/home office, with access to the garden through a glazed door. Straight ahead, the kitchen diner offers both practicality and elegance with hand-painted shaker-style cabinets, solid wooden worktops and a six-ring gas stove. A separate utility room and ground floor WC sit just off the kitchen, and French doors lead directly out to a private south west-facing garden.
On the upper levels, three double bedrooms are accessed via split staircases, adding a distinctive feel to the home. Both the main and guest bedrooms benefit from en-suite shower rooms, while the third double enjoys views across the rear garden and neighbouring countryside. A four-piece family bathroom completes the accommodation, featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower. The large, boarded attic offers potential for conversion into further rooms, if desired.
Externally, the enclosed south-west garden is mainly laid to lawn with a paved patio area for outdoor dining. The home also includes a double garage with an electric up-and-over door—situated centrally within a block of three—offering secure parking or storage.
This is a leasehold property. It is managed by the residents-led Bailrigg Chase Management Limited which owns and maintains the freehold land, roadway, shared courtyard (former farmyard) and shared waste treatment plant. There is no ground rent and the monthly service charge is £45.00.
It is a 976 year term.
