Substantial detached house with huge grounds and income potential for over‑60s.
Five bedrooms and four bathrooms, generous reception rooms
Bluebells is a substantial five-bedroom detached house set in approximately nine acres of grounds with ancient woodland and wide countryside — plus distant sea views. The house offers generous living space, including a 26ft living room, separate dining room, kitchen/diner and four bathrooms, so it adapts well to multi‑bedroom family use or comfortable retirement living with space for visitors.
This property is being marketed with a Homewise Home for Life Lifetime Lease example: the guide Lifetime Lease price is £837,500 (market value £1,250,000). Only buyers aged 60+ can access the Lifetime Lease savings; the actual price depends on age, personal circumstances and any share purchased (up to 50%). The property is offered as shared ownership under that plan — full tenure details must be verified by your solicitor.
Key practical points are straightforward: oil‑fired central heating, secondary glazing, parking for up to five cars and several outbuildings including a Woodland Wagon and summer houses that could be used for holiday lets or guest accommodation. The house dates from c.1950–66 and shows external wear and some period construction issues (cavity walls assumed without insulation), so modernisation and improved insulation will be needed to reduce running costs.
Important drawbacks are clear: the heating runs on oil (not a community supply), broadband speeds are slow, council tax is Band G (quite expensive) and the property will require updating in places. Prospective buyers should verify tenure, service provisions and planning consents before committing.
