Apartment 2, Bailgate Court, Wordsworth Street, Lincoln, Lincolnshire LN1

An impressive two bedroom ground floor apartment, beautifully situated within an 18th century Grade ii-listed conversion, located in the highly desirable and sought-after Uphill Lincoln.

Description
The apartment forms part of the exclusive Bailgate Court development, which was initially constructed in 1777 and served as a hospital and later a theological college before being converted in 2019. The Grade ii-listed building retains much of the original character which continues within the apartment, including coving and sash windows, whilst also having been upgraded with modern features, such as underfloor heating throughout, triple glazing and stylish engineered wood floors.

The well-proportioned apartment offers more than 1400 sq ft of space and is situated on the ground floor, with excellent natural light provided by tall windows, many of which frame views of the cathedral and castle. The open plan kitchen and living/dining room is the highlight of the apartment, with a fantastically airy feel and plenty of space for entertaining. The kitchen is Peter Jackson branded, with a laundry room. There are two double bedrooms: One with an en suite shower room, while both have built-in storage and access to the private terrace. There is also a separate shower room.

The front of the attractive brick building features elements of the original 18th century architecture, including the grand, stepped entrance. Bailgate Court is set within beautifully landscaped communal gardens, featuring lawned areas, mature trees and spaces to sit and enjoy the cityscape below. The apartment has two designated spaces in Bailgate Court’s private car park and use of additional visitor parking.
