The property is being marketed with an example Home for Life Lifetime Lease through Homewise for purchasers aged 60+, which can reduce the upfront cost versus full market value. Example figures shown are a Lifetime Lease guide price of £419,965 (average 30% saving) compared with a full market price of £599,950; actual price depends on age, circumstances and the proportion of the property you choose to secure (up to 50%). Purchase is subject to property and lease review and is not guaranteed.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold new-build retirement development — buyers must confirm lease length, annual service charges and ground rent with the managing agent. The local area is affluent with strong amenities and green spaces, but crime statistics for the immediate area are reported as very high, which may affect security perceptions. Broadband and mobile signals are average.
Overall, Bourne Lodge suits downsizers or buyers aged 60+ seeking a modern, low-upkeep apartment with communal facilities and flexible Homewise options. Factor in leasehold costs and local safety data when deciding whether to view.
