Summary - Ashbank House, Lower Street, Leeds ME17 1RJ
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Large garden, garage and retirement-friendly layout for peaceful village living.
Expansive rear plot with picturesque countryside views
A spacious, newly refurbished three-bedroom detached house set on an expansive plot with picturesque countryside views. The interior has been modernised throughout, including a stylish kitchen and well-proportioned reception rooms, ready for immediate occupation. The property is freehold and has double glazing, gas central heating and garage plus driveway parking.
This home is marketed with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease example for over-60s: a guide Lifetime Lease price of £380,000 is shown (market value £575,000). Lifetime Lease savings typically range between 20% and 50% depending on age and circumstances; purchasers can buy up to a 50% share to safeguard value. The plan is only available to those aged 60 or over — contact Homewise or use their online calculator for a personalised quote.
Externally the plot is a major asset: large rear gardens, rural outlook and clear scope to extend subject to the usual planning consents. The layout and size (approx. 1,324 sq ft) suit downsizers who want comfortable single‑floor living with some extra space, or retirees seeking room for visiting family.
Notable practical drawbacks: broadband speeds are very slow, there is only one shower room, and council tax is described as quite expensive. Any buyer should verify planning history and consents before undertaking extensions and check service and appliance condition despite the recent refurbishment.
