5 bed detached house for sale

Northgate, Lincoln LN2

A rare opportunity to acquire an attractive Grade II listed detached period home, discreetly positioned just off Northgate, in the heart of Lincoln’s highly sought-after Uphill area.

Believed to date back to the late 18th century, with later 19th-century additions, this charming home-historically known as Northgate Cottage-offers a wonderful blend of heritage and modern living. Retaining a wealth of character, including traditional sash windows and period detailing, the property has been thoughtfully improved by the current owners to provide spacious, versatile, and beautifully presented accommodation throughout.

The ground floor briefly comprises an entrance porch and hallway, an elegant dining room, a comfortable sitting room & drawing room divided by a feature brick fireplace, breakfast room, modern fitted kitchen, utility room, and W.C.-offering excellent flexibility for both family living and entertaining.

To the first floor, there are three generously sized double bedrooms, two of which currently benefit from access to a large, luxurious En-suite bathroom, in addition to a further modernised family shower room.

The second floor provides two further well-proportioned double attic bedrooms, ideal for guests, or additional family space.

Outside

Externally, the property enjoys a tucked-away setting on a generous plot, approached via an upgraded resin driveway providing ample off-road parking and leading to a detached double garage. Mature gardens surround the property, predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by established trees, shrubs, and patio seating areas-creating a private and tranquil outdoor environment.

A fully insulated garden room/home office with power and lighting offers excellent additional space, perfectly suited to remote working or a variety of alternative uses.

Situated within Lincoln’s historic Uphill area, close to the Cathedral Quarter, the property benefits from immediate access to a wide range of independent shops, amenities, and well-regarded schooling, all within one of the city’s most desirable and characterful settings.

A truly unique home combining period charm, generous accommodation, and a prime historic location.
