Externally to the front elevation, the property is proudly set back off Shipton Road and is accessed via a large gravelled driveway offering parking for multiple vehicles. Bordered by mature hedges and providing access to a single garage with timber doors, suitable for a further vehicle or storage.

To the rear is a truly remarkable garden offering privacy, tranquility and much of the days sun, with a large full width patio for ample seating options. The remaining garden is mainly laid to lawn, flanked with mature hedges, trees, shrubs and plants allowing nature to thrive. A useful summer house resides half way down plus a further shed for storage of garden accessories. Towards the far end is a vegetable garden and meadow area.

Mrs E Harvey

Lancaster Samms are by far the best Estate Agents I have ever worked with

Neil really went the extra mile in getting my mum’s house on the market and then getting it sold.

Neil was knowledgeable, reassuring, hard-working, and incredibly thoughtful to both us and the buyers. I cannot recommend his services highly enough.

Mr D Holloway

Elkie was absolutely brilliant from start to finish

I recently bought a house through Lancaster Samms.  My estate agent was Elkie. She was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. An absolute joy to deal with, so much so I would now consider her a friend.  She was so professional keeping me in the loop of a very long probate sale.

Over the course of many months, Elkie met me at the house several times so that I could organise the future renovation work. She was always happy to help.
House buying can be overwhelming sometimes however Elkie always made me feel calm and she was a pleasure to work with.

I am now the owner of the house that I fell in love with on day one. I couldn’t be happier!

Mrs V Clint

We felt like we were Elkie's only customers

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Elkie at Lancaster Samms for the highest standard of customer service she provided during our sale.

We had the smoothest, no stress sale you could possibly have wanted, couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Elkie lead us through the whole process from beginning to end with ease.  She was always contactable, never left us hanging and kept us updated throughout, no matter how small the detail.  She answered all our questions, no matter how trivial.

We highly recommend Elkie and Lancaster Samms as the Estate Agents to go to.
