Summary - STARBOARD LIGHT WHITE HORSE LANE OTHAM MAIDSTONE ME15 8RQ
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Lifetime-lease option for over-60s seeking peaceful hamlet living and easy single-floor layout.
Freehold detached bungalow on large plot with garage and driveway
This single-storey detached home sits on a large plot in quiet Otham, offering manageable living with generous outside space and garage parking. It’s presented as a practical downsizing choice or a refurbishment project for buyers who want to personalise a property. The Home for Life Lifetime Lease from Homewise is available to those aged 60+, with an illustrative Lifetime Lease guide price of £264,500 (market value £400,000); actual price depends on age and circumstances.
Internally the layout includes two bedrooms, a lounge/diner, sun room and a loft room accessed by an existing staircase (limited head height). Rooms are spacious but many finishes are dated — the kitchen and some internal fittings will benefit from modernisation. Heating is by oil boiler and radiators, and double glazing dates from before 2002.
Practical considerations include very slow broadband, above-average local crime levels and higher-than-average council tax banding. The property is offered chain-free on a freehold title and is suitable as a retirement home. Buyers should verify services, tenure details and any loft conversion consents; the loft has been used previously as occasional accommodation but head height is restricted.
