This one-bedroom retirement apartment at Orcombe Court offers a low-cost route into a managed, age-restricted community in Exmouth. The Home for Life Lifetime Lease option gives buyers aged 60+ a reduced purchase price (guide Lifetime Lease price £59,500 versus full market £85,000), with the ability to buy up to a 50% share to protect future value. Actual price depends on age and circumstances and is subject to lease and property review.
The apartment is on the second floor of a McCarthy & Stone development served by lift, with communal facilities including a residents' lounge, laundry, guest suite and 24-hour Appello emergency system. The flat provides an entrance hall, lounge, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom with room sizes typical for retirement living and pleasant outlooks over maintained communal gardens.
Notable practical points: heating is by electric room heaters rather than central heating, and the property may be subject to event or service charges — check management fees and lease terms before committing. The Lifetime Lease route involves specific eligibility rules and variable pricing, and Homewise does not own the property; purchase at full market value remains an option. This apartment suits a buyer seeking a manageable, secure retirement base in a well-served town location.
