House & Building Plot, 21 Northgate, Lincoln, Lincolnshire, LN2

A rare opportunity to acquire a stunning detached residence, perfectly positioned within easy reach of Bailgate and Uphill Lincoln—one of the city's most historically significant areas. Just a 10-minute walk from the magnificent Lincoln Cathedral, one of Europe's finest examples of Gothic architecture, this home offers both heritage and convenience. 

Set within mature grounds extending to 0.84 acres, planning permission has also been granted for an additional dwelling within the grounds if desired. The property enjoys a truly unique setting, featuring sections of the original Roman moat running through the garden, a charming period Folly, which marks the highest point in Lincoln. Originally part of Lord Shuttleworth's estate, it once served as his summer house. The garden also boasts the original limestone pavement surrounding the pond and an array of specimen trees planted by Colonel Hobson during his global travels.

Built in 1920 by the Sheriff of Lincolnshire, Sir Robert Pattinson, for his own use, this home has had only three owners in its lifetime. It has been recently rewired and reroofed, ensuring modern comfort while preserving its historical character.

Despite its proximity to the city, the property offers exceptional security, enclosed by an extensive brick boundary wall, yet it retains the charm of a secluded country retreat. Sitting on the rear veranda, you can enjoy serene views over the mature gardens and beyond to Lincoln Cathedral.

Inside, the home has been lovingly maintained by the same family for over 30 years, offering a rare opportunity to make it your own. The ground floor comprises an inviting entrance porch and hallway, a cloakroom/WC, a well-equipped kitchen with a pantry, a spacious dining room, and a comfortable lounge. Additionally, an adjoining self-contained annexe—currently operating as a successful Airbnb—features a private entrance and the flexibility to be seamlessly incorporated into the main home if desired.

Upstairs, the property boasts a family shower room, a separate WC, and five generously proportioned double bedrooms, including a main bedroom that benefits from a private en-suite.

Agent's Notes: Approved planning permission allows for the addition of an in-and-out driveway at the front of the home. 

There is a building plot to the side of the plot with planning permission granted for a detached dwelling, or could be used as additional garden which is included in the sale.
