Africa Drive, Lancaster, LA1 5TZ
The Location
Africa Drive sits within the Riverside View development, just off St George’s Quay
Despite its calm feel, everything is within easy reach. Lancaster city centre, with its mix of independent shops, cafés and restaurants, is a short walk or cycle away, while the train station provides direct links to Manchester, London and beyond. The area is popular with professionals and young families, drawn to its balance of modern living, green space and strong sense of community.
The Property
Set behind a neat frontage, this double-fronted home immediately stands out for its balanced design and well-kept appearance. Step inside and the sense of light and space is clear, with a layout that feels both practical and easy to live in from the outset.
The lounge sits to the front, a calm and comfortable room where large windows bring in plenty of natural light. It’s a space that works equally well for quiet evenings or spending time with family. To the rear, the home opens up into a sociable kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is finished in a clean, modern style with ample worktop space and storage, with the added benefit of a new hob and oven fitted in March 2026. The dining area sits beside French doors that lead directly out to the garden, creating a natural flow between inside and out. A ground floor WC adds to the practicality.
Upstairs, the same sense of care continues. All three bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, making storage simple and keeping the space uncluttered. There are two generous doubles and a third room offering flexibility depending on your needs. The main bedroom includes an ensuite, where a new shower was installed in December 2025, creating a fresh and private space. The main bathroom is bright, simple and well finished.
The home also benefits from a Hive heating system, allowing separate control of the ground and first floors, offering both comfort and efficiency.
Outside, the garden has been designed to be easy to enjoy. Enclosed by walls for added privacy, it offers a lawn, planted borders and a seating area that catches the light throughout the day. To the rear, a driveway leads to a detached garage with power, providing both secure parking and useful storage.
