About this home
The Location Spinners Court is a purpose-built retirement development for the over-55s, occupying an excellent position close to the heart of Lancaster.

Lancaster city centre is within comfortable walking distance, providing access to supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, the market, medical facilities and the city's wider amenities. One of the particular attractions of Spinners Court is its position beside Lancaster Canal. The towpath provides pleasant level walks through the city and beyond, while nearby green spaces give the development a more relaxed feel despite its central location.

Offered for sale with no onward chain, it provides a comfortable and manageable home for buyers looking to enjoy independent living within an established retirement development. The apartment opens into a generous entrance area, providing useful space before leading through to the principal rooms. The living room is particularly well proportioned, extending to over 17ft in length and comfortably allowing for both lounge and dining furniture. A feature electric fire creates a traditional focal point, while the neutral décor and large window help to keep the room bright and welcoming. The fitted kitchen is positioned just off the living room and is arranged to make good use of the available space. Traditional wood-effect cabinetry provides plenty of storage, complemented by work surfaces, tiled splashbacks and space for the necessary appliances. Although traditional in style, it has clearly been carefully maintained. The double bedroom is another good-sized room, with ample space for wardrobes, drawers and additional furniture. Completing the apartment is the bathroom, fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC. Overall, this is a well-cared-for apartment that offers manageable proportions, a spacious main living area and the convenience of being within easy reach of Lancaster city centre.
