Summary - 165, Riverside Drive LN5 7NZ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact first-floor flat with parking close to university and city centre.
Bright open-plan living/kitchen with integrated appliances
This well-presented first-floor, one-bedroom flat occupies around 475 sq ft in a modern red-brick block built 2003–2006. The open-plan living/kitchen is bright and efficient, with integrated appliances and UPVC double glazing; an allocated off-street parking space adds genuine convenience in a city-centre location.
Practical running costs include electric heating via room heaters and an EPC rating of C. The property is leasehold with a service charge of £261 per quarter; council tax is very low. No chain and no flood risk make the sale straightforward for a swift move or letting.
Location suits students and professionals — it’s a short walk to the High Street and University of Lincoln, with strong mobile signal and average broadband speeds. The communal grounds are low-maintenance and the accommodation is compact, so the flat works best for a single occupant or couple rather than a family.
Notable negatives are the building’s urban crime classification (very high) and reliance on electric room heaters rather than central gas heating, which could increase running costs. The leasehold status and quarterly service charge should be reviewed before purchase. Overall, this is an economical, low-upkeep central flat with clear appeal to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors.
