An attractive central staircase hall opens to a living kitchen running front to back, separate sitting and dining rooms, a useful utility room and a large conservatory. Rising to the first floor and there are four double bedrooms and a house bathroom, the main bedroom has an ensuite cloakroom and dressing room. However, Ghyllfield is about so much more than the house as the gardens are extensive and there are good outbuildings – all offering great potential and amenity value. The most significant outbuilding is detached and has excellent potential for a multitude of alternative uses (subject to consent). Presently it provides an extra length double garage, a workshop and handy cloakroom. Attached is a generous garden/machinery store and a wood store. There is also a separate detached outbuilding. Wrapping around the house, this is a great garden for a growing family, gated, it can be secured to make it enclosed for younger children. Close to the house there are outdoor seating areas which then open to large level lawns and an orchard. Completing the package is excellent parking (with three gates providing vehicular access onto the public highways) with space for cars, campers, caravans, boats and the like. To top it all, this is a fabulously accessible and convenient location with local services in nearby Scorton, Garstang and Lancaster. Links to the road and rail networks are at hand whether you need to travel for business or pleasure and the village is surrounded by picturesque open countryside giving ready access to the great outdoors whether you like to walk, run, cycle or drive. All in all, Ghyllfield ticks a lot of boxes for those seeking an attractive, spacious and characterful period home in large grounds with good outbuildings and excellent accessibility. Location Forton is exceptionally accessible so if convenient and time efficient access to road links is a priority, whether for business, family commitments or social engagements then being located just off the A6 will prove a major advantage. Travelling by train is convenient as well, there are stations at both Lancaster and Preston on the main west coast line. Situated south of Lancaster, Forton is a small village with a school and an ice cream parlour/coffee shop. Geographically, there is a shop for essentials in the village of Scorton (nearest if you need a pint of milk), a wider selection in the pretty market town of Garstang (having a choice of three supermarkets) and then a full range of facilities on offer between the cities of Lancaster and Preston. Forton offers a cricket club, tennis court and a popular village hall with a calendar of social events held throughout the year. Scorton (c.1.4 miles distant) has a children’s play park, village hall, Spar shop, gift shop, garden centre and several places to enjoy a bite to eat or a drink. It’s a popular destination for a drive out, afternoon tea or ice cream and also as a stop off mid ride for cyclists as so many routes pass locally. Garstang (c.3.4 miles away) is on hand for your wider day-to-day needs; there are branches of Booths, Sainsbury’s and Aldi as well as a busy high street with a great selection of independent retailers and a traditional weekly market. When the bright lights beckon, the nearest city is Lancaster which offers a full range of commercial and recreational facilities including a wide selection of restaurants serving cuisines from around the world as well as a great shopping experience with most of the town centre being pedestrianized. Culturally, there is a choice of theatres and cinemas and an established arts and music scene with festivals and events throughout the year. Major employers in the area, there are also two universities and both private and NHS hospitals. If you are seeking to embrace fresh air and fun, then there’s great countryside surrounding Forton. It’s close to the Forest of Bowland (otherwise known as the Bowland Fells), an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty encompassing fells and deep valleys, ancient woodlands, sprawling heather and peat moorland. It offers many opportunities for outdoor adventure with an extensive network of lanes, footpaths and bridle paths. Vendor Insight Needing to travel in this country and abroad for work has meant that this location is excellent. It’s convenient for the M6 at J33, as well as being handy to get to the station or airports. Step inside Bearing a date stone of 1905 above the front door, Ghyllfield has been sensitively, respectfully and tastefully upgraded to create a well-balanced combination of period charm with the practical convenience needed for comfortable modern-day living. Charming and characterful, it’s an inviting and friendly house. Step inside…the solid pitch pine front door has leaded coloured glass through which the sun casts a colourful glow. Often used at the time, the staircase’s balustrade, spindles and newel posts are also a wonderfully mellow pitch pine and the majority of the internal panel doors have been stripped to reveal the old golden pine. There are a couple of original fitted cupboards as well, one in the dining room and another in one of the bedrooms. The ceilings are high (many have cornices or picture rails) and the windows tall, originally single glazed and sash, on the comfort front these have now been replaced with double glazed units, some in wooden frames, the rest being PVC in wood grain effect frames chosen to match. Gas fired central heating is in place (a new boiler was installed in 2021) which backs up the two open fires and the multi-fuel stove on days when you don’t want to light the fire. But when you do want to hunker down, watch the flames and listen to that distinctive crackle then there are open grates set into authentic and highly appealing Victorian surrounds in both the sitting room and living kitchen with a multi-fuel stove in an impressive high stone surround in the dining room. There’s nothing quite like an open fire and there are times when nothing else will do for added atmosphere; Sundays, over the Christmas holidays and let’s be honest, any rainy afternoon or winter’s evening when you’ve time to sit and enjoy time with a film, book or bingeworthy box set. The social and open plan living kitchen has traditional pine fronted cabinets which aesthetically tie in with the use of wood elsewhere in the house, solidly built and of a classic panel design, the cabinets would paint a treat if you wanted to freshen the look; just choose a shade to complement the quality granite worktops. The Belfast sink looks right at home as does the wooden topped island unit which extends into a small breakfast bar, ideal for sitting and chatting to the chef as supper cooks on the hob. Above the island is a hanging rack for display or to keep favourite pans or utensils to hand. It’s a great family room, perfect for having friends over – open plan and sociable. Another nod to tradition comes with the ceiling mounted airer above the stove in the dining room – a great way to dry or air laundry. For ease of maintenance new flooring in a herringbone design has been laid in the central hall, living kitchen and sitting room. Equally robust, there are slated tiled floors in the dining room and utility room. Obviously a much later addition the south facing conservatory spans the entire front elevation and is a versatile room – French doors open to the garden and there are great views to the garden’s leafy surrounds and across the road to the field – the view of the setting sun from here is an absolute delight we’re told. Immensely versatile, it currently houses the hot tub (included in the sale) and makes a great space for spending time with family or for hosting. There’s plenty of room for soft seating, as a games or play room, it’s whatever you need it to be. A wall mounted electric/gas heater in here enables year round use. On the first floor the views rise above the hedges surrounding the garden and extend to take in the Bowland Fells to the east. The four bedrooms are all doubles and the main room has a cloakroom (with loo and wash basin) and dressing room which is fitted with rails, shelves and drawers. The remaining three bedrooms share the spacious house bathroom which has a heritage aesthetic; a roll top free standing bath, wash basin, loo with high level flush and a separate shower. Two of the bedrooms have charming feature fireplaces, just delightful focal points. Ghyllfield also manages to provide great storage space, the utility room has plenty of cupboards for tucking away coats and outdoor clothing and there’s a half cellar under the stairs. On the first floor the former airing cupboard is now for general storage and the loft has a pull-down ladder and is part boarded with a window, power, light – subject to the necessary approvals there is scope to convert. To sum up, Ghyllfield is a lovely period home – there’s a degree of familiarity in the traditional ‘four square’ layout. It has good proportions, great character, fabulous light and attractive views. Relaxed and inviting, it’s a house to call home. Vendor Insight We loved the original character features in the house and the fact that it’s so light. Most rooms have two windows so it’s bright. The sunsets are stunning; we can enjoy them from the garden or in the conservatory and have so many photos of them!
