This spacious four-bedroom, three-bathroom semi-detached house combines period build and a contemporary extension to offer flexible living over multiple levels. The living room is bright with a fireplace and large window; the rear extension opens via bifolding doors onto a west-facing garden and patio—ideal for afternoon sun and outdoor entertaining.
The property is being marketed as suitable for retirement living and can be purchased through Homewise’s Home for Life Lifetime Lease for buyers aged 60+. A guide Lifetime Lease price is shown at £318,250 (market value £475,000); actual savings depend on age, circumstances and the percentage share chosen. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local schools and amenities are within easy reach.
Notable practical points are straightforward: the house is solid brick (likely uninsulated as built), with mains gas boiler and radiators. Council tax is modest (Band B) and flood risk is low. However, the neighbourhood records very high crime levels and the wider area is described as very deprived—important considerations for safety and long-term value.
Buyers should verify tenure, service arrangements and all measurements. The property has renovation potential but may need insulation or other energy-efficiency improvements. The Lifetime Lease option suits those aged 60+ wanting a reduced upfront cost, while full-market buyers should seek the full asking price details and legal checks.
