This property is available on a shared ownership basis, with the current share being 25%, offering an affordable purchase price with the option to staircase up to a maximum ownership of 75%, with Onward Homes retaining the remaining 25%. The current monthly rent and service charge payable to Onward Homes is £334.27, comprising £215.04 rent and £119.23 service charge.
The service charge provides a number of additional benefits and includes buildings insurance together with a Lifeline alarm service for added reassurance. Onward Homes have also confirmed responsibility for a number of external elements of the property, including the roof, gutters, downpipes, external doors and windows, helping to reduce the burden of maintaining these larger structural and external items.
The property is restricted to purchasers aged 55 and over, making it particularly suitable for those seeking comfortable and manageable accommodation within a peaceful community setting.
Overall, this is an excellent proposition for buyers looking to downsize or enjoy a quieter pace of life, combining affordable home ownership with the reassurance of managed external maintenance and additional services, whilst still offering the opportunity to modernise and personalise the property over time.
