A compact one-bedroom cottage in the heart of Helston, offered with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease option for buyers aged 60+. The stone-built mid-terrace retains period character and comes with a small private courtyard garden — a low-maintenance outdoor space well suited to downsizers.
The property is modest in size (approximately 504 sq ft) with gas central heating via boiler and radiators and good broadband and mobile signal. It sits in a self-sufficient retirement area close to shops, cafés and local services, and has no recorded flood risk. The Homewise Lifetime Lease guide price is £117,250 (typical saving c.33% versus the full market price £175,000), with the exact price depending on age and circumstances.
Buyers should note this is an older, granite-built cottage (pre-1900) likely without wall insulation and of traditional construction; maintenance or retrofit work may be needed to improve thermal performance. Tenure details are not confirmed and must be verified by a solicitor. The Lifetime Lease arrangement suits many over-60s seeking reduced upfront cost, but the purchase structure and any share retained should be carefully reviewed before proceeding.
