A well-presented three-bedroom end terrace in Jarrow, presented as suitable for retirees and ideal for those wanting a manageable, comfortable home close to local amenities. The layout features a living room opening to a dining area, a kitchen with conservatory, three first-floor bedrooms and a shower room. The property includes a small front patio, enclosed rear garden and a garage in a separate block.
This listing is offered as an example that can be purchased using the Home for Life Lifetime Lease from Homewise for buyers aged 60 or over. The guide Lifetime Lease price for eligible purchasers is shown at £124,000 (approx. 33% saving on the £185,000 market price) but the actual price depends on the buyer’s age, circumstances and any percentage share chosen (up to 50%). If you are not eligible for the Lifetime Lease, the full market price applies.
Practical positives include off-street parking, a separate garage, fast broadband and strong mobile signal. The neighbourhood is described as comfortable and very affluent with good transport links, nearby Metro access and local green spaces — suitable for independent retirees who value convenience and easy travel.
Notable points to verify before purchase: the conservatory has a polycarbonate roof, the main bathroom is a shower room (no separate bath), the garden and plot are small, and the EPC rating is not yet provided. The garage is in a communal block rather than attached. Buyers should confirm tenure, EPC, and any Homewise plan details with their solicitor and the Homewise calculator for a personalised quote.
