Lifetime Lease option for over-60s near coast and town amenities.
Lifetime Lease option for buyers aged 60+ (price varies by age and circumstance)
This detached two-bedroom cottage sits on the edge of Rye's Citadel, offering period character alongside practical living spaces. The property is presented with a triple-aspect living room, adjoining dining room, fitted kitchen and a first-floor shower room. Outside there is off-street hardstanding parking and a terraced rear garden arranged on two tiers.
For buyers aged 60 and over there is an option to purchase a Lifetime Lease through Homewise’s Home for Life plan. The illustrative Lifetime Lease guide price shown is £251,250 (based on a circa 33% saving); the full market price is £375,000. Exact price and any share you choose to purchase will vary by age and personal circumstances and should be checked with Homewise or your solicitor.
Practical points to note: the plot is small, the house is of average overall size (approx 679 sq ft) and the first floor contains two bedrooms with a single shower room. The property’s tenure details are not confirmed here — buyers must verify tenure/lease and any planning or building regulation history. Crime levels in the area are recorded as above average, and purchasers should factor that into local amenity and security considerations.
This home will appeal to retirees seeking a convenient town location close to amenities, transport and the coast, with opportunity to lock in future value via a shared Lifetime Lease. It could also work as a second home or small investment, subject to verification of legal details and suitability.
