This well-presented Victorian end-of-terrace offers move-in ready accommodation across two floors, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking central Lincoln living. The bay-fronted lounge retains character with an exposed brick fireplace, while the separate dining room and fitted kitchen provide practical everyday space. The property is chain-free and benefits from a single garage plus potential off-street parking via a dropped kerb.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with built-in storage, and a fully finished bathroom with both a bath and a walk-in shower. At about 648 sq ft the layout is efficiently arranged for a small household, and the property’s solid-brick construction provides robust fabric.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the dwelling has an EPC rating of D and solid brick walls assumed to be uninsulated, so thermal upgrades could improve comfort and running costs. The immediate area is described as very deprived with very high local crime levels; prospective purchasers should factor location and security into their plans. Council tax and flood risk are both low, and connectivity (mobile and broadband) is strong.
Overall this compact, characterful home suits someone wanting a central base with garage/workshop potential and scope for energy improvements. It’s particularly appealing to those prioritising location and ready-to-occupy condition, while accepting nearby area challenges and possible future retrofit work.
