3 bed 2 bath Detached
Well-presented retirement-friendly home with garden office and large plot.
Three-bedroom detached house with far-reaching village views
Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in East Farleigh, this well-presented three-bedroom detached house offers far-reaching village views and a sunny, private rear garden. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating while the bright lounge, centred on a log burner, creates a cosy living space for cooler evenings.
Outdoor living is a strong feature: a generous, mature front garden, large rear garden with patio and landscaped planting, plus a useful outbuilding/home office for flexible working. A garage and driveway add practical parking and storage on a large plot within easy walking distance of the village station, pub and primary school.
This property is being marketed with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease example price for buyers aged 60+, which typically reduces the purchase cost compared with full market value. The advertised Lifetime Lease guide price is £353,500 (illustrative saving ~33%); the full market price is £535,000. The exact Lifetime Lease price depends on age, circumstances and any share purchased (up to 50%). If you are under 60, the full market purchase route remains available.
Practical points to note: the house dates from the late 1960s–1970s so some buyers may want to update fixtures or finishes; double glazing installation date is not recorded. Council tax is above average. Overall this is a comfortable, low-crime village home well suited to downsizers or those seeking a retirement property with flexible living and a home office.
