This property is being marketed with information about the Home for Life Lifetime Lease available to buyers aged 60 and over. That plan can reduce the upfront cost (typical savings 20–50%), with a guide Lifetime Lease price shown at £110,500; the full market price is £165,000. Actual price paid under the plan will depend on age, circumstances and any share purchased and should be checked using the Homewise calculator and independent legal advice.
Practical points to note: the home is compact at about 806 sq ft and has one main bathroom plus a separate WC. EPC D and built in the 1950s–1960s, it is double glazed with gas central heating. Local broadband and mobile coverage are strong, and transport links are convenient for commuters. However the immediate area rates as very deprived with above-average crime statistics—buyers should consider location and safety measures when viewing.
Tenure and other legal details must be verified by your solicitor before exchange. The property will suit an over-60 buyer looking to reduce initial capital outlay via a Lifetime Lease, or anyone seeking a modest, move-in-ready home near coast and local amenities.
