Summary - 58 SHAMBLES DRIVE COPPLESTONE CREDITON EX17 5HP
3 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Manageable three-bed retirement home with Lifetime Lease saving options.
Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, approx 1,136 sq ft
A well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached house in quiet Copplestone village, offered with a Home For Life Lifetime Lease option for purchasers aged 60 and over. The property occupies an average-sized footprint with a compact garden, bright living space and French doors linking the sitting room to the outside. The house totals approximately 1,136 sq ft across two storeys and offers straightforward, low-maintenance accommodation suited to retirement living.
The Home For Life plan can reduce upfront cost: the listed market value is £285,000 while the guide Lifetime Lease price shown is £191,000 (average saving c.33%). The plan allows buyers aged 60+ to buy a percentage share (up to 50%) of the property’s value and pay less than full market price; actual price depends on age and circumstances. Interested buyers should use the Homewise calculator or request a personalised quote to see likely savings.
Practical positives include fast broadband, low local crime, good nearby primary and secondary schools, and easy village access to local amenities and countryside. Notable constraints: tenure details are not confirmed and must be verified by a solicitor; the Lifetime Lease model is restricted to over-60s and may not suit buyers who want full market ownership. The plot is small and the property may offer limited extension potential.
Overall this is a sensible, quiet retirement option for an over-60 buyer seeking lower upfront cost and a manageable home in a village setting. Verify tenure, lease terms and what percentage purchase best matches your financial plans before committing.
