Two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a bright lounge and a secluded rear garden provide comfortable living within easy walking distance of the town centre and train station.
The property is available through a Home for Life Lifetime Lease example for over‑60s; guide price shown is £172,000 (typical saving c.33% against the full market price of £260,000). The lease has c.94 years remaining, with a modest service charge (£131) and low ground rent (£10). Buyers can choose to purchase up to a 50% share of the property value to protect future equity.
Practical benefits include off-street parking for multiple vehicles, double glazing, gas central heating and fast broadband/mobile signal. These features make the flat easy to manage and well connected for day-to-day life.
Important drawbacks are the property’s small overall size (approx. 479 sq ft), its leasehold status, and the local context: the wider area is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics. The Lifetime Lease pricing depends on age and circumstances and is only available to purchasers aged 60 or over; those not using the Lifetime Lease would pay the full market price.
