This surprisingly spacious townhouse welcomes one or two families, or groups of friends, to discover the historic city of Lincoln. With Lincoln Castle—home to an original Magna Carta—just 30 metres away, and the 11th-century cathedral only 0.3 miles from the door, you can explore two of the city’s most iconic landmarks within minutes. The house sits within the castle’s dry moat, just 20 yards from the west entrance, while two excellent pubs and a highly rated Indian restaurant are within 100 metres. The appropriately named Steep Hill (celebrated as one of the prettiest streets in England) is less than half a mile away. Browse the city’s independent shops, then relax with coffee and cake at the cafe directly opposite the property. For those venturing further afield, Doddington Hall and Gardens, the Lincolnshire Showground, the International Bomber Command Centre, and Rand Farm Park offer fantastic days out, all within 12 miles.
The terraced, red-brick townhouse is set over three storeys, with a single step leading up to the handsome front door. Inside, you are greeted by an open-plan lounge/diner where a pair of comfortable sofas sit beside an ornamental period fireplace, complemented by books and artwork that make you feel instantly at home. A large front window looks out towards the cafe opposite. There is a Smart TV and a selection of board games for evening entertainment, and the large dining table is perfect for gathering the whole group together to make lasting memories. The compact kitchen leads off the dining space and is well-equipped with a gas hob, an electric oven, a fridge, and a microwave—ideal for whipping up hearty breakfasts and light suppers. Both the kitchen and dining area enjoy impressive, direct views of Lincoln Castle.
Steep steps lead down to the basement level, opening straight into a generous double bedroom. From here, you can access a cosy bunk-bed room; both bedrooms share a bathroom with a shower over the bath, making this an ideal set-up for a family. Heading back upstairs, a staircase from the dining room leads to the first floor, which hosts two further double bedrooms. Please note that one of these is a small double (4ft wide) and is raised with one side against the wall. These two rooms share a second family bathroom, also fitted with a shower over the bath. When you want to step outside and enjoy some fresh air, steep steps from the kitchen lead down to a long garden, featuring outdoor dining furniture for six people at the far end. While there is no allocated parking at the property, you can load and unload directly outside (subject to availability). Free parking is available 0.5 miles away, or alternatively, you can use the public car park opposite the property (daily charges apply).
