A compact two-bedroom mid-terrace townhouse set within easy walking distance of Lincoln city centre. The accommodation is straightforward and well-kept, with a spacious bay-front lounge, a contemporary kitchen/diner opening to a secure rear garden, and allocated off-street parking — a valuable perk in this central location. Sold freehold and with no onward chain, the home suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable urban starter or investors targeting reliable city lettings.
Rooms are practical rather than grand: both bedrooms are double-sized for the footprint, and a boarded loft and storage cupboard add useful space. The property is presented in neutral condition with laminate/vinyl floors and a modern-style kitchen; largely cosmetic updates would personalise the home but are not essential for immediate occupation or rental.
Notable points to consider: the overall footprint is small (approximately 605 sq ft), and the wider area scores as relatively deprived with higher local crime levels — factors to weigh for families and some buyers. EPC details are to follow and should be checked before purchase; the boiler is wall-mounted (Baxi) and services appear functional from the listing. The secure, low-maintenance garden and allocated parking add practical daily value but the plot and external space remain modest.
For buyers prioritising central convenience, low running council tax (Band A) and an easy, chain-free transaction, this property offers straightforward value. Investors will find steady tenant appeal; owner-occupiers should budget for any desired cosmetic improvements and review EPC and local-area considerations before committing.
