A deceptively spacious three-bedroom mid-terrace arranged over two stories, this property has been updated with modern fittings and open-plan living — ready for comfortable retirement living. The high-gloss kitchen, useful utility porch and a lounge that flows into a dining area create practical, low-maintenance space for everyday life and entertaining. A small, low-maintenance rear garden with artificial grass provides an outdoor seating area.
This home is being promoted with the Home for Life Lifetime Lease option for purchasers aged 60+, which typically reduces the purchase cost versus full market value. Guide Lifetime Lease price shown is £90,500 (approx. 33% saving on the £135,000 market price); the actual price depends on age, circumstances and any share of equity you choose to buy (up to 50%). The property is also offered freehold at the full market price for buyers not using the scheme.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C. Local transport links, shops, parks and Metro connections are close by, making day-to-day travel easy. Broadband and mobile coverage are good for the area.
Important considerations: the neighbourhood scores high for deprivation and recorded crime is above average; prospective buyers should check suitability and safety for their needs. All legal details, tenure and any planning or building consents must be verified by your solicitor before purchase.
