A solidly built Edwardian mid-terrace with three bedrooms and straightforward layout, 160 Monks Road suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking an affordable entry into Lincoln. The house offers a separate lounge and dining room, a practical kitchen with utility and ground-floor WC, plus a small rear garden that’s easy to manage. Gas central heating and full double glazing keep running costs reasonable, and the property is freehold with very low council tax (Band A).
Internally the rooms are compact but functional across roughly 89.5 sq m (925 sq ft listed), with period bay windows and some Victorian character. The accommodation is generally in good condition but shows dated decor in places and potential signs of minor damp/mould in one room — cosmetic refurbishment will refresh the home and add value. EPC rating D should be noted if planning energy upgrades.
Location is practical: close to local shops, primary and secondary schools, and city amenities, making it convenient for daily life or reliable rental demand. However, the immediate area records higher-than-average crime and local deprivation metrics; buyers should weigh this when considering family use or rental yield expectations.
Overall, the house represents an affordable, manageable property that offers immediate use or straightforward improvement potential. It will particularly appeal to buyers wanting a low-maintenance garden, period features, and easy access to Lincoln’s services; renovation and energy upgrades would enhance comfort and market value.
