Location
Set within a peaceful courtyard just off Bailrigg Lane, Bumble Cottage forms part of an exclusive development of eight barn conversions. The setting feels rural yet remains convenient for everyday life — just minutes from Lancaster University, the M6 (J33), and cycle routes into the city. Residents enjoy a quiet, well-kept community environment, surrounded by open countryside and mature trees.
Property Description
Stepping inside, the home immediately feels light and spacious thanks to its split-level layout and generous proportions, offering around 1,582 sq ft of living space. The main lounge features high ceilings and large picture windows that fill the room with natural light. Neutral décor and well-planned lighting create a welcoming and relaxed feel.
The modern kitchen–diner sits at the rear of the property, opening directly onto the south-west facing garden. It’s the ideal spot for entertaining or simply enjoying the afternoon sun. The kitchen includes ample workspace, integrated appliances, and room for a family table.
The home provides three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal suite with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. A second double bedroom also benefits from its own en-suite, while the third is served by a contemporary family bathroom. A versatile second reception/home office offers flexibility for hybrid working or a snug, and there is also a useful utility area for additional storage.
Outside, the property benefits from private parking and a double garage located within the courtyard, offering excellent space for vehicles and storage. The south-west facing garden enjoys plenty of sunshine throughout the day. The courtyard is beautifully maintained and shared by just eight households, each owning a share in the residents’ management company — creating a friendly and cooperative environment.
