About this home

Location Haverbreaks is widely regarded as one of Lancaster’s most desirable private residential settings, known for its leafy surroundings, individual homes and generous plots. Quiet roads and mature greenery give the development a particularly established feel, while its south Lancaster position remains highly convenient for everyday life. It is a location that has long appealed to professionals, academics, hospital staff and buyers looking for privacy without moving away from the city. Haverbreaks Place itself is a peaceful cul-de-sac, with Lancaster city centre, the Royal Lancaster Infirmary, Lancaster University and the railway station all readily accessible. There are well-regarded schools within the wider area, along with local shops and amenities around Scotforth and Bowerham. The Lancaster Canal is a particularly attractive feature of the surroundings, providing scenic waterside walks and helping give this part of Haverbreaks its green and peaceful character. Property Information Occupying a generous plot, Haverbreaks Place is a beautifully presented two-bedroom detached bungalow with excellent parking, an integral garage and an impressive rear garden and canal-side setting. A spacious entrance hallway immediately gives the home a good sense of proportion and connects the principal rooms, with a separate WC adding everyday practicality. Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles positioned towards the front of the bungalow and benefit from fitted storage, while the bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite and shower over the bath. The living accommodation takes full advantage of the garden setting. The generous living room features wide glazing and doors looking directly across the greenery, creating a bright and relaxing space. A modern living-flame gas fire provides an attractive focal point. The kitchen diner is another highlight. Arranged in a practical galley-style layout, it features hand-painted cabinetry, generous worktop space and room for a dining table beside a large window overlooking the garden. A separate laundry/utility room and walk-in pantry provide valuable additional storage and functionality. The glass-roof conservatory provides a further reception space and is surrounded by garden views, making it ideal as a sitting room or a quiet place to relax throughout the year. Outside, the frontage is particularly generous, with a broad driveway providing parking for several vehicles and leading to the integral garage. Established lawn and planting soften the approach and give the bungalow excellent kerb appeal. The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the home's defining features. Wide, mature and beautifully established, it offers a substantial lawn bordered by mature hedging, shrubs and trees, creating an excellent degree of privacy. Its setting towards the Lancaster Canal adds further appeal and creates a wonderfully green backdrop to the property. Although already very well presented, the bungalow also offers interesting longer-term possibilities.
