A well-presented four-bedroom detached house on Chaucer Drive offering flexible, multi-generational accommodation with a ground-floor bedroom, sitting room and shower room — ideal for those seeking single-level living without giving up extra space. The home features an open-plan kitchen/diner, separate lounge, conservatory opening onto a patio and a decent rear garden, plus off-street parking.
This property is being marketed with a Homewise Home for Life Lifetime Lease example price of £297,500 (illustrative saving ~33% from full market value £450,000). The Lifetime Lease option is available only to buyers aged 60+ and allows purchase of up to a 50% share; actual price depends on age and personal circumstances. If you are under 60 you can buy at the full market price.
Built in the late 1990s/early 2000s with cavity walls and double glazing (installed before 2002), the house presents as modern but some fixtures and finishes show dated elements inside. There is no flood risk, broadband speeds are fast and local crime levels are very low, supporting comfortable, low-stress living in an affluent, small-town fringe setting.
Important practical points: prospective buyers should verify planning/building regulation consent for the ground-floor extension/annex and check which fixtures and services are working. The property is freehold and has a moderate council tax band.
