A double-storey extended semi in the desirable village of Hassocks, a short walk from the station and High Street. The house offers a generous kitchen/dining room, a comfortable lounge with a remote-control gas fireplace and a sunny rear garden with garage and off-road parking — practical for downsizing owners who still value space and storage.
This home is being offered with the Home for Life Lifetime Lease example price of £350,500 (typical saving around 33% against the full market price of £530,000). The Lifetime Lease option is available to buyers aged 60 or over and allows purchase of up to a 50% share to safeguard equity; the exact price depends on age and circumstances. The property is freehold and also available at the full market price to buyers not using the Lifetime Lease.
Accommodation includes four bedrooms and a single family bathroom (bath and separate shower), plus a ground-floor cloakroom. The layout will suit those who want flexibility — spare rooms for guests or hobbies — but note the house has just one main bathroom. The home dates from the 1950s–1960s, has double glazing, cavity walls (assumed uninsulated) and gas central heating; some updating and insulation improvements may be worthwhile to increase comfort and efficiency.
Overall this is a practical, well-located family-sized home that adapts well as a retirement property. Its sizeable kitchen/diner, parking and proximity to local amenities make it convenient, while the Lifetime Lease option could reduce upfront cost for qualifying over-60s. Buyers should verify planning/building consents for the extension and factor potential refurbishment or insulation work into their plans.
