Ideal retirement home with flexible layout and garden for summer hobbies.
Five bedrooms plus separate ground-floor annexe with kitchenette and bathroom
This versatile five-bedroom detached home in Whitstable has been thoughtfully updated and extended, creating an impressive open-plan kitchen/breakfast and dining area that flows to the rear garden. A self-contained ground-floor annexe with lounge, kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom offers flexible living for guests, carers or multigenerational use. The principal bedroom benefits from a balcony with far-reaching sea views.
Comfort and running-cost savings have been addressed with eight owned solar panels, air conditioning and partial underfloor heating. The large rear garden with summerhouse (powered by the panels) and off-street parking add outdoor space and practicality. The property is freehold and constructed in the late 1960s–1970s with double glazing and filled cavity walls.
For buyers aged 60 and over there is the option to secure this home via a Home for Life Lifetime Lease through Homewise; the guide price for that option is £462,500 (market value £700,000) and typical savings range from about 20%–50% depending on age and circumstances. The property is also available at full market value to other buyers.
Important practical notes: council tax is above average; interested parties must verify planning/building-regulation consents for the extension/conversion and confirm the condition of appliances and services. Some images are virtually staged to show styling potential.
