Welcome to Main Road

Bolton-le-Sands is a picturesque village with lots to offer, and this road runs through the heart of the old village. You have a gym, tennis club, crown green bowling, playground, and cricket club all on your doorstep, alongside the highly regarded local primary school. This creates a real community spirit.

There are two popular pubs and three restaurants to choose from. It's a great location for active families, with walks available along the canal and along the shore, where you can pop into the garden centre or continue to Archer's Café. It is a popular location thanks to its semi rural feel, all while being just a 10 minute drive to Lancaster, Morecambe, and the M6.

The Overview

The former Packet Boat Hotel is now available and offers a four bedroom house, plus full planning for the development of two further dwellings on site. Since it's closure in 2015, the property has been split into two, with a stylish four bedroom house already been completed. The site now has planning permission approved for an additional three bedroom semidetached house and a detached two bedroom house to be built on a plot at the far end of what was the car park.

There is a large bright and airy lounge, modern kitchen and dining area, a particularly impressive master bedroom with attached dressing room and ensuite, including shower and freestanding bath. There are two further double bedrooms with canal and sea views, a generous single bedroom and attractive modern family bathroom.

The house also benefits from a walk-in cellar with the same footprint as the ground floor, accessed by stairs from the kitchen.

Offstreet parking for two cars and the outside garden space for this house is yet to be completed, but are included in the approved plans for the site.
