Garstang Road is a charming three-bedroom semi-detached home with a long and fascinating local history. The property was originally known as Tower View, named after a historic tower that once stood nearby many years ago (unrelated to Blackpool Tower). Built around 1900, the house formed part of the Elmhurst Estate and was originally constructed as the gardener’s residence serving the estate.
Dating from the late Victorian period, the home retains a number of attractive architectural features typical of the era. In more recent years it has been sympathetically and thoughtfully renovated by the current owner, with improvements carried out in a way that carefully preserves the character and heritage of the property while introducing the comforts expected for modern living. Most of the principal rooms within the house are also equipped with Lightwave RF lighting, allowing programmable mood and scene lighting to enhance the atmosphere throughout the home.
Garstang Road sits within the desirable Bowgreave area, offering convenient access to the nearby market town of Garstang. The location is well regarded for its surrounding countryside, local schools and straightforward road connections to nearby villages and towns. Garstang itself offers a wide selection of independent shops, cafés and everyday amenities, while the beautiful Lancashire countryside is easily accessible, making the area an appealing setting for a range of buyers.
