This three-bedroom end-of-terrace offers a practical, single-bathroom layout across two storeys with a generous rear garden and separate garage. The house is compact (approximately 584 sq ft) and suits buyers seeking low-maintenance living, outdoor space, and clear potential for modest updating.
The property is being promoted as eligible for Homewise’s Home for Life Lifetime Lease for purchasers aged 60+, with a guide Lifetime Lease price of £167,500 (market price £250,000). That plan lets eligible buyers purchase a share of the property value (up to 50%) to reduce upfront cost; actual price varies by age and circumstances. The marketing also states the home is suitable as a retirement property.
Practical positives include fast broadband, very low local crime, a garage plus off-street parking, and pleasant suburban surroundings. Note the house is small and will likely need some cosmetic updating; tenure details are not confirmed and should be checked with a solicitor. The wider area shows mixed socio-economic indicators, so buyers should verify local services and planning history where relevant.
Overall, this home will appeal to over-60 buyers seeking security and lower entry cost through a Lifetime Lease, or to purchasers wanting a compact three-bed with garden and garage who are prepared to refurbish. Important checks: confirm tenure/lease, utility and service condition, and any work history before committing.
