Step back in time with this exquisite Grade II listed cottage, a true gem dating back to circa 1714, nestled on a private plot in the heart of Forton, Lancashire. Just a stone's throw from the M6 motorway, convenience meets charm in this picturesque setting.

Stepping through the front door of this historic stone property, you're enveloped in the timeless allure of original features that define its character and charm. The living room beckons with its cosy ambience, adorned with authentic wooden beams and stone mullions framing the space. A focal point stone fireplace sets the stage for snug evenings, complemented by a warming log burner.

Transitioning through an inviting archway, the kitchen unveils a rustic country aesthetic, boasting newly appointed wall and base units, a classic Belfast sink, and an electric range cooker. The flagged floor completes the quintessential cottage vibe, creating a space as functional as it is charming.

Ascend the staircase to discover the first floor, where three bedrooms and a bathroom await, offering comfort and tranquillity amidst historic surroundings. Outside, a south-facing private garden provides a serene retreat, while off-road parking for one vehicle ensures convenience.

Forton itself is a village steeped in history, nestled within the Wyre district near the Forest of Bowland. With amenities including Forton Primary School, several churches, and the nearby village of Garstang offering a plethora of shops and eateries, everyday needs are within easy reach.

For those with a passion for the great outdoors, Nicky Nook beckons just minutes away, offering breathtaking views over Lancashire's coastal plain and beyond. Whether indulging in leisurely rambles or seeking adventure, this idyllic location caters to all.

With Garstang mere minutes away and both Lancaster and Preston reachable within 20 minutes, urban convenience harmonises with rural tranquillity. Plus, with the potential to serve as an ideal serviced accommodation for walkers and ramblers, this cottage presents a unique opportunity for those seeking a blend of history, comfort, and opportunity in the heart of Lancashire.
