Description
The ground floor comprises of a large central hallway giving access to a dining room and lounge which comes with a feature multi-fuel burner and access onto the balcony. Completing the ground floor is a kitchen, three bedrooms, shower room and bathroom. This substantial four-bedroom detached chalet bungalow, measuring approximately 2,000 Sq Ft of combined floorspace, occupies a discreet and highly sought-after position in Lincoln's historic uphill area. Situated just a ten-minute stroll from the iconic Cathedral and Castle, the home is perched on the North Cliff escarpment, offering breathtaking westerly views that stretch across the Lincolnshire countryside and the picturesque Trent Valley with stunning daily sunsets.
The interior is meticulously maintained, offering a thoughtful layout designed for both family life and entertaining. The ground floor opens into an inviting entrance porch and a modern downstairs WC, leading through to a spacious central hallway. The light filled living spaces are a particular highlight; the lounge features direct access to a balcony terrace specifically designed to soak in those incredible sunsets and views over the garden, while the formal dining room and master bedroom both also enjoy expansive outlooks. Three generously proportioned bedrooms, a modern shower room, and a separate family bathroom complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, a versatile study landing provides a quiet retreat with perhaps the most striking views in the house overlooking the West Common and old Grandstand, whilst also leading through to a fourth well-proportioned bedroom.
Externally, the property is a private sanctuary accessed via a long, exclusive driveway off Upper Long Leys Road. This provides ample parking for vehicles and leads to a detached garage. The grounds wrap around the home, featuring a beautifully presented garden and sizeable patio area. A further highlight of the home is a large workshop and utility/garden store, located underneath the balcony, fitted with power and plumbing for laundry appliances. Below the patio, the landscaped gardens slope gently southward, eventually meeting a pedestrian gate near the Yarborough Road junction which could provide further potential for vehicular access or parking subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The property is perfectly placed to enjoy the vibrant lifestyle of the Cathedral Quarter, where the historic Bailgate offers an exciting mix of independent boutiques, artisan bakeries, and award-winning restaurants. Families are particularly well-served by highly regarded local schooling, including Mount Street Academy, Westgate Academy and the independent Lincoln Minster School, while outdoor enthusiasts can take advantage of the expansive West Common and Whittons Park, both of which are just moments away for scenic walks and recreation.
