Summary - THE SYCAMORES CHURCH GATE WHAPLODE SPALDING PE12 6TA
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Large plot and generous reception rooms near village amenities.
Victorian detached house with high ceilings and multiple original fireplaces
A substantial Victorian detached home in Whaplode, arranged over multiple floors with generous reception space and a huge plot. The house keeps period character — bay windows, high ceilings and several original fireplaces — while offering a modern kitchen, utility and downstairs shower room for everyday convenience.
Specifically set up for older buyers via the Home for Life Lifetime Lease, those aged 60+ can typically buy this property at a reduced Lifetime Lease price (guide price shown £268,000) instead of the full market price of £400,000. The plan can also allow purchase of up to a 50% share to protect capital; the exact lifetime-lease price will vary with age and circumstances and must be confirmed with Homewise.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, walls are likely uninsulated sandstone/limestone (pre-1900 construction), and double glazing was installed before 2002. These features can mean higher running costs and potential improvement work (insulation, modern heating or re-glazing) if you want to reduce bills and improve comfort. Tenure details are not confirmed; buyers should verify tenure, fixtures, fittings, consents and services with their solicitor.
For someone seeking roomy, characterful retirement living in a village setting, this house offers flexible accommodation (four bedrooms plus dressing room, ensuite, multiple reception rooms) and extensive outdoor space with parking for multiple vehicles behind electric gates. It is best-suited to those prepared to manage or invest in period-property maintenance and energy upgrades.
