This detached three-bedroom bungalow on Gerrard Avenue offers single‑level living, a large rear garden and off‑street parking — ideal for those looking to downsize without compromising space. The interior has been recently modernised with a new kitchen and bathroom, and a bright conservatory extends the living space. At around 958 sq ft it sits on a generous plot with scope to extend upwards or outwards, subject to permissions.
The property is being marketed with a Homewise Home for Life Lifetime Lease example price of £287,500 for buyers aged 60+, typically representing an average saving (33% in this example) against the full market price of £435,000. The plan allows buyers to purchase up to a 50% share to safeguard future value — exact terms vary by age and circumstances; use Homewise’s calculator or request a personalised quote to confirm details.
Practical points to note: the bungalow was constructed between 1930–1949 and has cavity walls with no confirmed insulation, so further insulation work may be beneficial. There is a single bathroom for three bedrooms and ceiling heights are generally low to standard. Council tax is above average for the area. The sale is freehold and offered chain free, with excellent local amenities, fast broadband and very low local crime.
Overall this is a solid, recently refurbished retirement home with good future potential for extension and improvement. It will suit buyers aged 60+ seeking a comfortable, low‑maintenance single‑storey property with room to adapt, provided they factor in possible insulation upgrades and the single-bathroom layout.
