Summary

This period 1913 Edwardian residence stands as a testament to the architectural design of its era. Starkey&Brown is delighted to offer a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial semi-detached home in the heart of Lincoln’s sought-after Uphill district.



Commanding a prime position on Queensway, the property presents a striking double bay-fronted facade and boasts approximately 1,843 sq. ft. of expansive living space. The current owners have maintained the home for over 50 years, but it now offers the potential for a sympathetic and comprehensive scheme of modernisation. This provides an exceptional canvas for those looking to blend historic character with a bespoke contemporary finish.  



Upon entering the property you are greeted by the impressive entrance hall, where a magnificent feature window on the stairway acts as a focal point, bathing the original architectural details in natural light. The ground floor accommodation is designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable family life, featuring a bay-fronted lounge, a versatile secondary sitting room, and a formal dining room that seamlessly opens into the kitchen. Practical considerations are well-catered for with a boiler room, utility area, and a convenient ground floor cloakroom. Upstairs, the sense of scale continues with four generously proportioned double bedrooms, including a master suite measuring 13'11" x 13'11" with its own sweeping bay window. A first-floor shower room complete with a linen cupboard, serves all bedrooms.  



Externally, the property includes a private lawned rear garden complete with a timber shed and a fascinating historical feature: an original underground shelter tucked away beneath the garden. To the front, an extensive driveway provides ample parking for a minimum of two vehicles. 



The location is superb, situated just a short, scenic stroll from the historic Bailgate and Cathedral Quarter. Amenities such as Lincoln County Hospital, Bishop Grosseteste University, and national supermarkets are also within walking distance. Residents can enjoy a sophisticated lifestyle amongst independent boutiques, and award-winning restaurants like The Jews House or Ole Ole Tapas. The area is also home to the iconic Lincoln Castle and its lush grounds, perfect for weekend walks, while highly regarded schooling such as Lincoln Minster School and Lincoln Christ’s Hospital School are within easy reach, making this a standout choice for a growing family.
