Castle Moat House is an impressive early 19th-century residence, constructed of red brick with tall sash windows. The house has been thoughtfully updated in recent years to combine retained period features with contemporary fittings. The accommodation extends to five bedrooms and five reception rooms, providing a flexible layout suited to both family living and entertaining. A welcoming reception hall forms the central point of the house, featuring tiled flooring and a striking split staircase leading to a galleried landing. Two principal reception rooms are positioned to the front elevation, both benefiting from deep, south-facing bay windows that provide good natural light. These rooms retain original cast-iron fireplaces and are currently arranged as a sitting room and a snooker room. Additional reception spaces include a study and a snug located towards the rear of the house. Adjoining these is a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room, set beneath a lantern skylight. The kitchen is fitted with bespoke cabinetry, a central island and integrated Miele appliances, and provides ample space for dining and informal gatherings. A temperature-controlled cellar offers further practical storage. A utility room is situated off the kitchen, with space for appliances and additional storage. Beyond this is a guest bedroom with an en suite shower room, suitable for visitors or multi-generational living. On the first floor, the galleried landing leads to four further double bedrooms. Three of the bedrooms include built-in storage, while the principal bedroom is generously proportioned. The accommodation is served by a family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath, dual washbasins and a separate shower, in addition to two further shower rooms. The property occupies a notable position at the foot of Lincoln Castle, with views towards the castle walls. Gated access leads to a resin driveway providing parking and access to an integrated double garage. The gardens are enclosed by walls and arranged to include a lawned frontage with box hedging and mature trees. To the side, there is an area of artificial grass and a patio terrace, partially covered by a veranda, providing space for outdoor seating and dining. View payable Stamp Duty for this property
