Single-floor retirement home with huge garden and renovation potential, eligible for Home for Life.
Detached single-storey bungalow on a very large plot with garage
A single-storey detached bungalow on a very large plot in Preston, Paignton, offering comfortable retirement living with spacious garden and garage. The mid-century 1950s–60s property provides straightforward single-floor living and scope to modernise to your taste. It’s well-suited to buyers aged 60+ considering the Home for Life Lifetime Lease option.
The home sits in an affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and average mobile signal. Internal space is generous for a bungalow (approximately 947 sq ft, six rooms) with built-in storage in the bedrooms and a practical layout for downstairs living. Nearby schools and local amenities are accessible within this city/major town setting.
This is a renovation opportunity: the property is described as dated and in need of modernising. Potential buyers should expect cosmetic and possible updating work rather than a move-in-ready finish. Tenure details are not confirmed — solicitors must verify lease/tenure and any planning or building consents where relevant.
For eligible buyers aged 60+, the Home for Life plan from Homewise can reduce the upfront cost by buying a Lifetime Lease and a percentage share (up to 50%). The listed market price is £300,000; a guide Lifetime Lease figure for this property is £201,000 (an illustrative average saving of 33%).
