Period three-bedroom terrace near Lincoln city centre — auction sale, refurbishment opportunity.
3 bedrooms with high ceilings and period bay window
Two reception rooms offering flexible living space
Single ground-floor bathroom; potential reconfiguration required
Small rear garden, enclosed patio and lawn area
Sold at auction — 4.5% reservation fee (min £6,600) plus £300 info pack
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated; needs energy-efficiency upgrades
Very high local crime and deprived area — consider security/letting risk
Freehold, double-glazed windows, mains gas central heating
A traditional three-bedroom Victorian terrace in central Lincoln offering generous room proportions and period features such as a front bay window and high ceilings. The house provides flexible living across two reception rooms and a galley kitchen opening to a small rear garden — good scope for a family or investor to modernise and increase value.
The property is sold via the Modern Method of Auction. Bidders should factor in a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack fee (£300) payable before bidding, and complete within a 56-day reservation period. The property is freehold and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating but will suit buyers prepared to carry out updating.
Notable practical points: the mid-terrace was built before 1900 with solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation; there is one ground-floor bathroom; council tax is very low. The wider area is classified as deprived with very high local crime rates — important for owners considering security, lettability or family use.
Location is central with excellent transport links, fast broadband and nearby schools (several rated Good or Outstanding). This is a straightforward refurbishment project for a hands-on buyer or investor seeking an affordable entry into Lincoln’s central housing market.
