This three-bedroom semi-detached bungalow on Marrose Avenue offers a practical, single-storey layout suited to over-60s seeking comfortable, low-stairs living close to Westwood Cross. The property is presented to a good standard, with a sunny rear garden, purpose-built cabin ideal for hobbies or a home office, and ample off-road parking. The home is freehold and benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002).
The Home for Life Lifetime Lease option can significantly reduce the upfront cost for eligible buyers aged 60+, with a guide Lifetime Lease price shown as £215,000 (market value £325,000). The plan allows purchasing up to a 50% share to safeguard future value; exact pricing depends on age and personal circumstances. If you are not 60+, the full market price applies.
Practical considerations are stated plainly: the bungalow has one bathroom serving three bedrooms, and the cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation (may affect running costs). The glazing is older and the house dates from the 1930–1949 period, so buyers should expect typical mid‑20th‑century maintenance and consider updating windows or insulation over time.
Location benefits include proximity to Westwood Cross shopping centre and several well-rated local schools. However, local statistics indicate a very high crime level and higher area deprivation, which may influence resale and personal security choices. All buyers should verify measurements, services and legal details with their solicitor and surveyor.
