Summary - 29 BETJEMAN CLOSE LARKFIELD AYLESFORD ME20 6TQ
1 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached Bungalow
Lifetime Lease option for buyers aged 60-plus with significant upfront savings.
Chain free one-bedroom bungalow, approx. 410 sq ft
A compact, single-storey bungalow set in a quiet pocket of the Poets Development, offered chain free and suitable as a retirement or downsizing home. The lounge/diner feels light and airy thanks to a high vaulted ceiling, and the private rear garden enjoys views across to the North Downs. A nearby garage en-bloc adds off-street convenience.
This property is being marketed with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease example: market value is £300,000 and a typical Lifetime Lease guide price shown here is £198,000 (average saving around 33%; actual price varies by age and circumstances). The plan allows purchasers aged 60+ to buy a share (up to 50%) to safeguard funds while reducing upfront cost.
Practical points: the bungalow is small (about 410 sq ft) with one bedroom and one bathroom, double glazing, mains gas heating and a decent plot. The rear garden is private but currently overgrown and will need landscaping. The garage is separate (en-bloc). Broadband speeds are fast and there is average mobile signal.
Notable drawbacks are the compact internal space, the need for garden maintenance and some updating internally. The local area shows very affluent indicators overall but recorded crime levels are high; prospective buyers should visit and satisfy themselves on neighbourhood suitability. All measurements, tenure details and service conditions should be independently verified.
