This detached two-bedroom bungalow sits in a quiet cul-de-sac in Whaplode and is aimed at buyers aged 60+ through the Home for Life Lifetime Lease. The house offers a sensible single-storey layout with a spacious breakfast kitchen, separate lounge, sun room and a practical shower room — all arranged across approximately 967 sq ft. Outside there is a block‑paved driveway, single garage with electric roller door and an enclosed rear garden with open views across farmland.
The Home for Life guide price shown is £147,500 (example saving ~33% on the £220,000 market value); the actual Lifetime Lease price depends on your age and circumstances and you can choose to buy up to a 50% share to safeguard capital. If you are not using the Lifetime Lease option the full market price is shown for reference. There is no onward chain, which can speed up completion for a buyer ready to move.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile signal. The bungalow dates from the late 1960s–1970s and appears well maintained, but there are a few straightforward updates to note: the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated and the double glazing predates 2002, so buyers should expect potential improvement costs for insulation or window replacement to improve energy efficiency. Tenure details are not confirmed and should be verified by your solicitor.
Well suited to a downsizing buyer seeking single‑storey living in a village setting, the property is convenient for local shops, bus links and nearby towns. It offers immediate occupation without chain and scope for modest modernisation to increase comfort and long‑term value.
