The Location
Richmond Avenue sits within Beaumont, a well-established residential area to the north of Lancaster. It’s a setting that appeals to those who want a quieter pace of life while still being well connected. The Lancaster Canal and the River Lune are both close by, offering easy access to walking and cycling routes, whether it’s a morning run, a weekend walk or simply a way to unwind outdoors. The area has a practical feel, with a mix of long-term residents and families who value space, accessibility and a more settled neighbourhood environment.
Everyday essentials are within easy reach, including a local Spar for convenience shopping and a range of nearby services. Well-regarded primary schools are close by, making it a sensible choice for families, while the Bay Gateway provides quick access to the M6 and beyond, ideal for commuters. Lancaster city centre is just a short drive or bus journey away, offering a wider selection of shops, cafés and amenities when needed. It’s a location that balances day-to-day ease with access to open space and wider connections.
The Property
A home with clear potential and a layout that already works well, this three-bedroom semi-detached property offers an opportunity to update and shape a space to suit modern living. The ground floor centres around a dual-aspect living room, bringing in natural light from both sides and creating a comfortable main living space. The kitchen is positioned to the rear, compact but functional, with scope to reconfigure or extend (subject to relevant permissions). A three-piece bathroom is also located on this level, alongside a lean-to style conservatory that links the house to the garden and adds useful additional space.
Upstairs, the property is currently arranged as three bedrooms. There is one main double bedroom along with two well-proportioned single rooms, one of which could work as a smaller double if required. The layout is straightforward and practical, offering flexibility depending on how the space is needed, whether for bedrooms, a home office or a dressing room.
Outside is where this home really stands out. To the front, there is a small garden along with a dropped kerb and driveway providing off-road parking. To the rear, the garden is a key feature — generous in size, south-facing and offering a good degree of privacy, with a rear gate adding further access. It’s a space that could be shaped into something special, whether for outdoor dining, gardening or simply enjoying the sun throughout the day.
