A solid Victorian mid-terrace with genuine family-sized accommodation close to Lincoln city centre. The house offers three double bedrooms, bay-fronted reception rooms and period detailing such as high ceilings, coving and a fireplace — character that suits a growing family. Practical features include a fitted kitchen with range cooker, loft storage and a low-maintenance rear garden.
Location is a key strength: schools, shops and leisure facilities are within walking distance and the Eastern Bypass gives straightforward car access. Broadband and mobile signals are reported as fast and excellent respectively, and the property is freehold with very low council tax.
There are important things to know before viewing. The EPC is grade D and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so heating costs and upgrading may be needed. The area shows signs of deprivation and local crime levels are very high — buyers should consider security and community factors. On-street parking is used privately rather than a dedicated driveway.
With a circa 1900–1929 build and traditional layout, this home will suit families seeking space and period character who are prepared to carry out energy and security improvements. It represents a practical, city-centre base with clear potential to modernise for comfort and efficiency.
