Low-maintenance 70% shared ownership home with private garden and communal grounds.
Single-storey two-bedroom bungalow, ideal for ground-floor living
A compact two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow arranged as a ground-floor retirement apartment, offered on a 70% shared ownership basis for those aged 55+. The single-storey layout, private rear garden and bright conservatory make this a low-maintenance home suited to downsizers who want easy access to local shops and regular bus routes into the city centre.
The property sits in well-kept communal grounds with residents’ parking and off-street parking. It benefits from gas central heating, built-in hallway storage and a practical layout that includes an entrance vestibule, lounge, kitchen, conservatory, two bedrooms and a shower room. The monthly service charge is £140.07 (annual approx. £1,680.84) and covers communal maintenance, property insurance, a heating service contract and a lifeline call system.
Important buyer notes: the lease started 18 July 1997 and has 71 years remaining. That remaining term is likely to restrict mortgage options—many lenders may refuse to lend unless the lease is extended. This is a leasehold, shared-ownership property offered chain free and sold with vacant possession on completion. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported above average, and purchasers should satisfy themselves on security and neighbourhood suitability.
Overall this is a straightforward, move-in-ready retirement home in a convenient Leicester location. It will particularly suit cash purchasers, those with alternative mortgage arrangements, or buyers prepared to investigate lease extension options to secure lender support and longer-term value uplift.
