About
Location Railway Place sits in the heart of Glasson Dock, tucked behind the Victoria Inn and only moments from the marina, canal basin and the popular Smokehouse.
This small coastal village is known for its friendly feel, working harbour and scenic walks along the dock, towpath and shoreline.
Everyday needs are met locally with a village shop, café and pub, while Lancaster is only a short drive or bus ride away.
The setting is peaceful and sheltered, yet steps from open water and wide bay views.
From the rear of the home you can enjoy superb, uninterrupted vistas across Morecambe Bay and, on a clear day, right across to the Lake District fells.
The property also benefits from a designated parking space on a private road, along with an exterior outbuilding used for storage.
Property Details Stepping through the front door, you enter a welcoming lounge with an coal fire set into a stone surround and a large internal window providing a view through to the kitchen.
The coal-burning fire powers both the central heating and the hot water, offering an efficient traditional system for the home. The kitchen is surprisingly spacious and similar in size to the lounge.
Modern grey gloss units, granite-effect worktops and tiled flooring give it a more up-to-date feel.
Space for appliances is provided, and the layout works well despite the staircase entering this room. A back door leads out to the rear yard and outbuilding.
Upstairs, there are two genuine double bedrooms. The rear bedroom is currently used as a second sitting room, but it comfortably fits a double bed and includes a built-in cupboard.
Double doors open onto a small balcony with far-reaching bay views. The front bedroom is also a good-sized double.
Between the two sits the Jack-and-Jill bathroom, accessible from both the landing and the main bedroom. It features a walk-in shower, WC and basin, with white tiling and a decorative motif.
Over the past year, the property has undergone extensive insulation works.
This includes insulation to the ground floor, first floor and attic, with approximately six inches added to the original stone walls. The loft now has new Rockwool insulation.
Outside, the home enjoys a private seating area and access to the storage outbuilding. The designated parking space is located nearby on a private road reserved for residents.
