3 Moreton Green, Heysham, Morecambe, LA3 2FD

A great modern semi-detached house that’s perfect for one, two or a small family. Location is everything and Moreton Green is a quiet and tucked away cul-de-sac, situated at the head of the road, No.3 benefits from an elevated and west facing position which affords a pleasant outlook of the surrounding neighbourhood.

Built in around 1992, No.3 was purchased by the present owner in 2001 and extended in 2010 with the addition of a great dining room on the rear elevation, which as it is open plan with the kitchen has transformed the living space by providing a sociable dining kitchen, great for family living and lovely for having friends over. The accommodation is well presented, has PVC double glazed windows and has replacement kitchen and bathroom fittings, along with upgrades to the roof; the main house and porch were re-felted and re-covered, the fascia boards were replaced and new gutters installed, it is ready for new owners to move straight in and start enjoying.

A useful porch has room for coats and boots and opens into the sitting room where a gas flame effect fire set into a painted mantlepiece with marble inset provides a traditional focal point. Useful store cupboard. Through to the kitchen and there are contemporary cream high gloss fronted base and wall cabinets (the kitchen was refitted in 2021) with stylish grey metro splash back tiling, atmospheric under unit lighting and laminate worktops. The kitchen incorporates an Indesit induction hob with a Hotpoint extractor fan over, an Indesit double oven with grill, a Hoover fridge and Candy washing machine. The kitchen opens to the dining room extension which enjoys a lovely view out to the back garden. The ceiling is raised to the roof line and there’s a door out to the garden. Both kitchen and dining room have hardwearing tiled floors. The staircase is partially open plan to the kitchen and leads to the first floor landing. There are two bedrooms, a double room is on the front elevation, faces west and enjoys a pleasant, elevated outlook. A second single bedroom is on the rear elevation, faces east and has a view towards the fells of the Forest of Bowland beyond neighbouring roof tops. There’s access from here to a cupboard over the stairs which houses the boiler. The bathroom was refitted in 2019 and provides a bath with shower over, floating wash basin and loo. Part tiled with a laminate floor, chrome heated towel rail and obscured glass for privacy.

Outside the front lawn is open plan with the garden of the adjoining house creating a sense of openness. A path leads to the front door. The side drive is a tremendous asset and has room for several cars parked along its length. Tucked to the side of the house is a wooden garden shed and useful storage box. A gate opens to the back garden making it enclosed and safe for small children and dogs. The garden is fenced, private and a good size with room for outdoor furniture.
