It is being marketed with a Homewise Home for Life Lifetime Lease example price of £178,500 for over-60s, typically reflecting savings versus the full market price of £270,000 — actual Lifetime Lease price varies by age and circumstances.

The flat is leasehold and has one bathroom; its compact size and service charges may suit someone seeking convenience rather than extra space. Broadband is fast, crime is very low and local shops, buses and schools are within walking distance.
This is a straightforward, low-upkeep option for downsizers seeking a retirement-positioned home with parking and good local amenities. All details should be independently verified, including lease terms, service charge cover and any appliance condition.
