Lifetime Lease saving option for buyers aged 60 and over.
Three bedrooms with flexible living and a basement room
This three-bedroom semi-detached home in Burmarsh Close offers practical, flexible living across an average-sized footprint.

With mains gas central heating, double glazing and a layout that includes a basement room, it suits those wanting immediate comfort with scope to personalise.
The Home for Life Lifetime Lease option is available for buyers aged 60 and over: guide price £264,500 (based on an average saving of 33% from the full market value of £400,000). The scheme allows purchase of up to 50% of the property to safeguard funds; exact price depends on age and circumstances. If you are under 60 you can still buy at the full market price.
Practical advantages include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and quick access to the M2 and M20 for commuters. Local schools rated Good and Outstanding sit nearby, and local amenities include shops, a post office and leisure facilities. The house is freehold and was built in the 1980s, with cavity walls and assumed insulation.
Notable considerations: the plot is small and the property sits in a high-crime area, which may affect insurance and personal security. Bedroom three is very small and the home has just one family bathroom. While the finish is contemporary in places, the layout and some rooms would benefit from updating to maximise value. All measurements and tenure details should be independently verified.
