This terraced Victorian home is marketed as suitable for purchasers aged 60+ through the Home for Life Lifetime Lease, which typically reduces the upfront cost compared with full market value. Example guide prices: market value £125,000; Lifetime Lease illustrative price £83,750 (average saving 33%). Actual price depends on buyer age, chosen share (up to 50%) and personal circumstances.
Inside are two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a well-equipped bathroom with separate bath and shower cubicle. Period features include a front bay window, high ceilings and parquet flooring in the main reception. The compact, paved rear garden is low maintenance and easy to manage.
Practical points to check: tenure details should be confirmed by your solicitor, and the building is solid brick with no assumed wall insulation, so improving energy efficiency may be needed. The property is chain free and offers straightforward retirement living, but it has a single bathroom and a small plot, which may limit expansion options.
This is a practical, characterful option for a downsizer or buyer seeking lower-maintenance living with a Lifetime Lease route to reduce upfront cost. If protecting future value matters, the option to buy a percentage share of the property may be useful, but specific costs require a personalised quote or online calculator.
