17 Kingsway is a detached house in Nettleham, Lincoln, Lincoln (LN2 2QA). It has a recorded floor area of 170 m² (around 1830 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2022) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2012.
