Upstairs, the home offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, each with ample room for furnishings and storage. The family bathroom is finished to a modern standard, complementing the home’s clean and comfortable feel. A useful landing area and well-positioned staircase enhance the sense of flow between the floors.
The rear garden is a standout feature—private, enclosed and offering plenty of space for relaxation, play or al fresco dining. An additional garden office with electrics provides valuable extra storage or potential for hobby use.

ELIGIBILITY
Shared Ownership gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share in a new build or resales leasehold property. The purchaser pays a mortgage on the share they own and pays rent to a housing association on the remaining share. The combined mortgage and rent is usually less than you’d expect to pay if you bought a similar property outright although this is not a guarantee.
To be eligible for shared ownership you would need to meet the following criteria:
• Your annual household income does not exceed £80,000
• You have a deposit of at least 5% of the share value
• You do not own another property or have your name on the deeds or a mortgage for a property worldwide.
• This will be your only residence.
• You are a permanent UK resident or have indefinite right to remain.
*Service charges are estimated and may subject to change. Rent and service charges will be reviewed annually by your housing provider, usually on 1st April each year.
** This home can also be purchased outright (100% of the value) which is £330,000 and a purchaser would not need to meet the eligibility criteria listed above.
