This two-bedroom flat in Westcliff-on-Sea offers a practical retirement option close to the seafront, shops and transport links. Available through the Home for Life Lifetime Lease plan for buyers aged 60+, the illustrative Lifetime Lease guide price is £201,000 (market value £300,000). The scheme typically delivers 20–50% savings depending on age and circumstances and allows purchase of up to a 50% share to safeguard future value.
The apartment shows period character in parts but will benefit from modernization; images and descriptions note dated fixtures, traditional fireplace and neutral, older-style decoration. It’s a mid-sized, multi-room property with a conventional ceiling height and reasonable natural light, offering scope to update the living room and general finishes to personal taste.
Practical points to verify: tenure/lease details are recorded as unknown and must be confirmed by your solicitor. The Homewise Lifetime Lease is available only to those aged 60 or over who choose that purchase route; full market purchase is also possible at the £300,000 price. Flood risk is listed as no risk and local area data indicates fast broadband and an affluent, low-deprivation neighbourhood.
Overall this is a sensible retirement-location purchase for an over-60 buyer seeking coastal convenience and renovation potential. Expect to budget for updating and to confirm legal/lease arrangements before proceeding.
