Seaside and country homes scheme

Escape from the city?

 

London is not always ideal for everyone.


Even people who have grown up in the capital seek an alternative from the fast pace of city life as they approach retirement. Brent Council is working with
Seaside & Country Homes to help you find a home outside London in the country or on the coast.

 

Who can apply?


The Seaside & Country Homes scheme is open to some households in council or housing association housing in Brent.

 

These households include:

 

  • Households of one or two people where at least one member of the household is aged 60 or above.
    In cases where other members of the households are under 60 years of age they must be either the partner, joint tenant or registered carer of the applicant.
  • Applicants need to be nominated by their landlord, which for council tenants is Brent Council.
  • Every member of the household must have been living in the property for at least one year.

 

Our support:

 

We may be able to help with your moving costs. If you are downsizing from a property of at least three bedrooms to a one-bedroom property then you will be eligible for a payment of £4,000 after you move.
