Off-road parking plus garage located to the rear
Suitable for over-60s via Lifetime Lease option (guide price £192,000)
Chain free — immediate completion possible
Compact footprint (approx 445 sq ft) — limited internal space
Double glazing and gas central heating in place
Roof requires maintenance; cavity walls assumed uninsulated
Best suited to modest renovation or downsizing buyers
This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow sits on a corner plot in Herne Bay and offers single-storey living with off-road parking and a garage to the rear. Rooms are well proportioned despite the property’s modest overall size (approximately 445 sq ft), and the rear garden and outbuilding provide useful outdoor space and storage. The home is chain free and within walking distance of local shops and bus routes.
The property is being offered with a Home for Life Lifetime Lease option for purchasers aged 60+. A guide Lifetime Lease price is £192,000 (market value £290,000) — actual price varies by age and circumstances and may allow purchasing up to a 50% share to safeguard future value. This can substantially reduce upfront cost for eligible buyers but is only available to over-60s under the scheme.
The bungalow is straightforward in construction (mid-20th century cavity walls) with double glazing installed and gas central heating to radiators. Notable maintenance matters include roof upkeep and the assumed lack of wall insulation; the accommodation would reward modest updating and sympathetic renovation to maximise comfort and efficiency. The property presents well for someone downsizing who wants a manageable single-storey home close to amenities and the seafront.
Important practical points: the overall floor area is small, so space is limited; buyers should verify any specific service, fixture and tenure details with their solicitor. Broadband and mobile signal are reported strong and the area is generally low flood risk and average in local deprivation and crime statistics.
