This detached bungalow offers practical, single‑level living with the flexibility of a large converted loft — useful for a bedroom, hobby room or home office. The open-plan kitchen/dining area and bay‑window lounge create comfortable communal space, while three ground‑floor bedrooms suit visiting family or live‑in carers.
Available through the Home for Life plan from Homewise, those aged 60+ can buy a Lifetime Lease at a reduced price (guide Lifetime Lease price £268,000; full market price £400,000). The plan allows buying up to a 50% share to safeguard funds; actual price depends on age and personal circumstances. If you are under 60 you may purchase at full market value. All buyers should obtain a personalised quote and verify the scheme details.
The property sits on a decent plot with off‑street parking, a well‑maintained garden and a brick outbuilding for storage. Built around 1930–49 with solid brick walls and double glazing (install date unknown), heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators. Council Tax band C is described as affordable.
Notable negatives are factual: the walls are solid brick with no confirmed cavity insulation (assumed), the house has a single bathroom, and local crime statistics are above average. The area is classified as more deprived than average, so buyers should weigh local services and resale expectations. Tenure and all property details must be independently verified by solicitors before exchange.
