A practical, single-storey semi-detached bungalow suited to someone looking to downsize into a quiet retirement setting. The layout includes two bedrooms, a light-filled lounge and a compact kitchen; room sizes are modest so the home fits a simplified lifestyle. The property is freehold and benefits from a driveway, single garage and a decent rear garden — useful for hobbies or low-maintenance outdoor time.
This home is being offered with the option to buy a Home for Life Lifetime Lease through Homewise for purchasers aged 60 and over. Market value is £280,000; an indicative Lifetime Lease guide price is £185,500 (typical saving c.33%). Exact Lifetime Lease cost depends on age, personal circumstances and any percentage share purchased (up to 50%). If not eligible for the Lifetime Lease, the property remains available at full market price.
The bungalow is generally well presented but dates from the mid-20th century and will suit buyers prepared for modest updating rather than major renovation. It has mains gas heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and cavity walls. The local area has fast broadband, excellent mobile signal but is within a more deprived district; crime is average. Council tax is low.
Practical positives include off-street parking for multiple cars, a garage and a good-sized rear garden. Note the overall internal floor area is small (571 sq ft) and some cosmetic modernisation would enhance long-term value. Buyers should verify services, fixtures and any planning history; measurements are approximate.
