This semi-detached Victorian house offers generous space across multiple floors — four bedrooms and about 1,818 sq ft — suited to someone seeking a roomy retirement home with period character. High ceilings, a bay-window living room and a modern kitchen provide a comfortable blend of traditional features and recent updates. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and a wide range of local shops, services and transport links are within easy reach.
The property is being offered with a Home for Life (Lifetime Lease) example price of £221,000 for purchasers aged 60+, representing a typical saving against the full market price of £330,000. The plan allows buyers to buy up to a 50% share and adjust the price according to age and individual circumstances. If you do not qualify, the full-market route is available — tenure details should be confirmed by your solicitor.
Important practical points: the house was built 1900–1929 with solid brick walls assumed to have no cavity insulation, so heating costs and future insulation work should be considered. The plot is small and the property sits in an area classified as deprived with above-average local crime rates — factors that may affect suitability and running costs. Buyers must verify tenure, lease and service arrangements, and check any works or appliances before purchase.
For a buyer aged 60+ seeking a roomy, characterful home near Paignton’s amenities, this property offers noticeable value via the Home for Life option. For others, the full price route remains. Either way, budget for potential insulation or refurbishment works and check legal/tenure details carefully before committing.
