This home is marketed as suitable for over-60s through the Home for Life Lifetime Lease scheme. Typical Lifetime Lease savings range from 20–50%; the guide Lifetime Lease price here is shown as £80,500 (market value £120,000). Actual price and any purchase share (up to 50%) will depend on age and personal circumstances.
Buyers should note the property is small (approximately 603 sq ft) and sits in a neighbourhood with above-average crime and high local deprivation. The rear garden is presently overgrown and could use basic maintenance. EPC rating C and very cheap Council Tax (Band A) are positives for running costs.
Well placed for transport links into Gateshead and Newcastle, and within walking distance of local shops and schools, this house will suit older buyers wanting to downsize into an easy-to-manage, affordable home with some scope to personalise and maintain future value. Verify tenure and full terms of any Lifetime Lease before committing.
