Practical retirement-friendly terrace with garden and Lifetime Lease option for over-60s.
Three bedroom Victorian mid-terrace with private rear garden
A well-presented three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offering practical, low-maintenance living and a private rear garden. The rear extension creates a sizeable utility room and a large downstairs family bathroom, useful for ground-floor accessibility and flexible living. Double glazing and gas central heating keep running costs reasonable, and the property is freehold.
This house is marketed with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease example for buyers aged 60+, with a guide Lifetime Lease price of £152,500 (illustrative saving versus market value). Over-60s can buy a shared ownership percentage (up to 50%) to reduce upfront cost; the full market price is £230,000 for buyers not using the Lifetime Lease option. Exact price depends on age and personal circumstances.
Practical buyers will appreciate the compact rooms, straightforward layout and private, fenced decking—ideal for downsizers or retirees seeking manageable outside space. The property is close to local shops, bus links and several well-rated primary and secondary schools.
Be aware: the house is in a very deprived area with above-average crime statistics. The building is solid-brick (1900–1929) and likely lacks wall insulation. Rooms are generally small, and there is a single bathroom for three bedrooms. Interested buyers should verify any planning or building regulation consents for the extension and confirm all tenure and service information with their solicitor.
