A bright, modern one-bedroom first-floor apartment in central Horsham, offered through Homewise’s Home for Life Lifetime Lease for purchasers aged 60+. The open-plan lounge/kitchen provides flexible living and dining space, with an allocated underground parking space adding convenient, low-maintenance parking.
The property is presented as a practical retirement home: electric underfloor heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern living, while an average overall size (around 470 sq ft) keeps upkeep simple. The lease has 119 years remaining and running costs include a service charge (approx. £1,211 pa) and a small ground rent (£184 pa).
Important eligibility and pricing: the Lifetime Lease example price shown is £139,000 (guide based on an average saving of 33% against the full market price of £210,000). Only purchasers aged 60+ are eligible for the Home for Life plan; actual Lifetime Lease price depends on age, circumstances and any share purchased (up to 50%). If not eligible or choosing a standard purchase, the full market route applies at the advertised market price.
Location is a key selling point — a short walk to Horsham town centre, park and mainline station — but note the local crime level is above average. The apartment will suit someone seeking a low-maintenance retirement base with easy access to amenities and transport, or an investor targeting retirement-tenanted demand. Buyers should verify all lease, service charge and condition details with their solicitor.
