This three-bedroom 1940s semi-detached home in Old Walcot offers traditional character, a generous rear garden and practical parking with a driveway and garage. It’s presented as a suitable retirement option, particularly for buyers aged 60+ who can use the Home for Life Lifetime Lease to reduce upfront cost. The property totals about 813 sq ft — compact but with useful living space and scope to modernise.
The Home for Life guide price shown is £217,750 (typical saving c.33% against the full market price of £325,000). The exact Lifetime Lease price varies by age, personal circumstances and any percent-share you choose to purchase (up to 50%). If you prefer to buy outright at full market value, that option remains available — check tenure and lease details with your solicitor.
Internally the house retains mid-century features such as a bay-fronted main bedroom and fireplace in the living room, but photos and the description indicate dated fixtures and some wear. The layout includes a ground-floor shower room and a first-floor family bathroom. The large enclosed rear garden and garage provide strong potential for extensions or landscaping, subject to consents.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, low local crime and proximity to several good primary and secondary schools. Important to note: the property is advertised under a shared-ownership Lifetime Lease plan for over-60s, tenure details are not confirmed here, and all buyers should verify legal, service and planning information before proceeding.
