Chain-free retirement bungalow with garage, large garden and Lifetime Lease example.
Detached three-bedroom bungalow on a large plot
A spacious three-bedroom detached bungalow set on a large plot in sought-after Woodingdean. The house offers bright, well-proportioned rooms, a contemporary conservatory with full-width bi-fold doors and a private, sunny garden with far-reaching views — ideal for relaxed retirement living. Off-street parking and a garage add practical convenience, and the property is chain-free.
This home is being promoted with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease example for over-60s: the guide Lifetime Lease price shown is £363,000 (market value £550,000). Typical Lifetime Lease savings range from 20–50% depending on age and circumstances; customers may purchase up to a 50% share to safeguard value. The property can also be bought at the full market price by buyers not using Homewise.
Practical points to note: the bungalow dates from the 1930s–1940s, has double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls assumed to be uninsulated, so some energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. Accommodation is traditionally laid out with a single bathroom; there is scope to extend subject to planning permission. Overall this is a comfortable, low-crime, well-connected retirement option with potential for refurbishment to personalise and improve performance.
