A couple in their early fifties, actively looking to move to Lincoln, have sought advice from the local community about the finest places to live in the city. They have considered the well-renowned area of Uphill Lincoln, but are also interested in exploring areas within their budget of £400,000 to £425,000.
Residents of Lincoln were quick to offer their suggestions. Danesgate, Steep Hill, and Lindum Hill were proposed as potential areas due to their lively environment, which could suit the couple’s budget. It should be noted, though, there is a rising trend in house prices in Lincoln due to its growing popularity.
Other desirable locations such as Bunkers Hill, Wolsey Way, and Hawthorn Road were recommended. These areas feature numerous handy facilities and are in close proximity to the historic Bailgate, not far from the city centre. For those who find an appeal in the West Parade, they will find beautiful Victorian and Edwardian terrace homes, which anchor a touch of history in the heart of Lincoln.
The couple initially showed a liking for city living over village life. However, some community members suggested that they should also consider nearby villages like Bracebridge Heath. Its proximity to the city centre along with the stunning homes, low crime rates, and commendable schools makes it an attractive potential choice for the future.
There were further recommendations for Burton Road, Yarborough Crescent, and Carline Road, where new house hunters can discover a nice blend of central and more quiet locations. Despite the charm of central Lincoln, the community consensus is that the surrounding areas also offer an allure which should not be neglected.
Given the couple’s sizeable budget, they are urged to examine all possible options, including potentially enjoying a short commute from the nearby villages, which have efficient bus services to the city.
