Set on a large plot in the picturesque village of Oare, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers generous single-storey living and excellent parking. The layout includes a modern kitchen, separate dining room, useful conservatory and a larger-than-average garage — practical for cars and storage. Triple glazing, mains gas boiler and cavity-filled walls help with efficiency and comfort.
This property is being presented with a Home for Life (Lifetime Lease) example price of £330,500 for buyers aged 60+, compared with a full market value of £500,000. The Lifetime Lease lets eligible buyers purchase up to a 50% share to protect capital; actual price depends on age and circumstances. If you are under 60 you can still buy at the full market price.
The bungalow is suitable as a retirement home or a family residence, with easy walking access to Oare Creek, local countryside walks and nearby amenities including a national supermarket and country park. Three bedrooms and a single bathroom suit downsizers or those wanting ground-floor living, while the large garden offers potential to personalise or extend (subject to consents).
Buyers should note material points: there is only one bathroom, council tax is above average, and the surrounding area shows higher levels of deprivation. Internal dimensions are moderate and the property dates from the mid-20th century, so buyers should verify condition, services and any planning history. Overall, this is a well-cared-for bungalow with good outdoor space and flexible single-floor accommodation.
