The Location

Oxford Place sits quietly just off Barley Cop Lane in Skerton East, to the north of the River Lune. It’s a position that feels nicely tucked away while keeping day-to-day life straightforward, with local amenities close by and Lancaster city centre easy to reach on foot, by bike or via regular bus routes. Skerton East has a settled, residential feel, with a blend of long-standing neighbours and buyers drawn by the value, space and convenience of being close to the river, the centre and key road links.

Green space is a real part of the lifestyle here. Ryelands Park and the riverside paths along the Lune are within easy reach for dog walks, a run or a relaxed cycle out towards the countryside. A Morrisons Daily, takeaways, schools and supermarkets are nearby, while Lancaster’s cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions remain close enough to enjoy without relying on the car. It’s a well-balanced spot that suits families, professionals and anyone looking for a quieter base with room to breathe.

The Property

Set on a corner plot, this three-bedroom semi detached home immediately stands out for its sense of space and flexibility, both inside and out. The ground floor is arranged around a flowing, circular layout that makes day-to-day living feel easy and intuitive. The main living room is generous and welcoming, with large windows drawing in natural light and a layout that comfortably accommodates both relaxing evenings and entertaining.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the home and has been thoughtfully updated. Finished with grey shaker-style units and slate-effect worktops, it offers excellent storage and integrated appliances, while a wide picture window looks out onto the side garden — a real extension of the living space. Beyond the kitchen, the dining area connects neatly into the garden, creating a natural hub for family meals and gatherings.

Outside, the gardens are a real highlight. The side garden is decked and framed with mature planting, grapevines and a dedicated barbecue area, making it an inviting spot from spring through to late summer. To the rear, raised beds and a greenhouse create a productive and well-organised space for growing vegetables and herbs. The detached garage, currently used as a utility and storage space with power and appliances, adds further flexibility, while driveway parking for up to three vehicles is a rare and valuable feature in this part of the city.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms alongside a modern bathroom. Storage has clearly been well considered, with built-in cupboards, a boarded loft and a relocated boiler freeing up additional space. The overall impression is of a home that has been well cared for and steadily improved, offering comfort now with plenty of scope to adapt as needs change.
