Compact two-bed retirement flat with parking and garage — Homewise Lifetime Lease option.
Top-floor two-bedroom flat, open-plan kitchen/living with breakfast bar
A compact two-bedroom top-floor flat in Warlingham, presented for the over-60s Home for Life Lifetime Lease or for standard purchase. The apartment offers an open-plan kitchen/living area with a breakfast bar, a bathroom with both bath and separate shower, and useful parking plus a garage en-bloc. The property footprint is small (c. 453 sq ft) and best suited to someone seeking low-maintenance retirement accommodation close to local shops and Whyteleafe South station.
This home is offered through Homewise’s Lifetime Lease guide price of £185,500 (illustrative saving ~33% against the full market price of £280,000). The actual Lifetime Lease cost varies by age and circumstances; only those aged 60+ are eligible for the Home for Life plan. If you are not eligible, the property can be purchased at the full market price.
Practical costs and constraints are clear: long lease (979 years), service charge c. £1,740 pa, ground rent £50 pa, and the building dates from 1967–75 with solid brick walls (insulation not defined). The flat is top-floor (no lift mentioned), and the area has above-average crime statistics, so prospective buyers should verify security and access suitability before committing. An open house is scheduled for Saturday 27 September 2025 by appointment.
