A generously proportioned two-bedroom end-of-terrace suitable for buyers aged 60+ through the Home for Life Lifetime Lease. The property is offered freehold and presented with period-style external features, a large kitchen, and substantial parking including a double garage and rear driveway. The Homewise guide Lifetime Lease price is £248,000 (market price £375,000) — actual price depends on age and circumstances and can include purchasing up to 50% equity to safeguard funds.
Inside, rooms are very spacious (approx. 1,281 sq ft) with a sizeable kitchen, separate dining area and a large bathroom. The house has double glazing installed before 2002 and electric storage heaters; buyers should budget for running costs and potential modernisation of heating and glazing. The construction date is listed as 1967–1975 despite the Victorian-style brickwork and bay windows described externally.
Practical benefits are clear: private front and rear gardens with a decked area, extra storage (seller uses one space as a bar), and excellent mobile signal and fast broadband for staying connected. Note the local context — the area is classified as deprived with high crime levels; prospective buyers should check neighbourhood suitability and insurance implications.
This home will suit a retired buyer wanting spacious accommodation and easy parking who is comfortable managing some energy-efficiency upgrades and living in a mixed urban area. All details should be independently verified, including tenure, services and any planning consents.
