Adjacent to the bedroom the bathroom also has a rear aspect velux window and is fitted with a modern white suite comprising of low level WC, hand wash basin and panel enclosed bath with mixer tap and handheld shower over.
The property is ready for immediate occupation and whilst the current owners are looking to make an onward purchase may be able to offer a chain free sale for a quick move subject to negotiation. Internal viewing is recommended and can be arranged via the sellers chosen sole agents.
How does shared ownership work? You purchase a share of the properties full market value (50%) and pay a subsidised rent on the remaining share. You can raise a mortgage to purchase your share, if you have a large deposit or equity from the sale of a property, this can also be used towards purchasing your share.
You can sometimes later buy additional shares until you own 100%, if you wish to do so. This is called \‘staircasing\‘ and the cost of the additional shares is based on the market value of the property at the time that you purchase the shares. If you increase your share in the property, your rent is re-calculated and reduced proportionately.
