Ex Professional Chef, Businessman & Entrepreneur

Now disabled due to chronic arthritic & fibromyalgia pain in my legs (not helped by being a low handicap Golfer/Sportsman/Executive Chef/Workaholic businessman) have lived in a property owned by a lady friend who has now chosen to sell the apartment I have lived in the last seven years sadly due to her breast cancer returning for a second time. I need ground floor access and ability to store and charge my mobility scooter (not totally essential more of a bonus) and to safely park my Mercedes CLA 180 car

I receive my entitled benefits and have references to confirm no missed payments whilst being a renter.

The last 25 years has been more about looking after and caring for my injured, ill, dying…or then late family & great friends together with solving their living problems and then tidying up their private matters thereafter so whilst I feel fully able to enjoy my latter years there’s still plenty of fire in my belly to get things done. So to that end am looking for strategically placed “homes” so I can retrace my footsteps and enjoy Manchester my home town, Eastbourne in Sussex, Barnstaple in North Devon, Costa del Sol’s Fuengirola/Los Boliches (all places I had homes and business interests…plus other locations where remaining true friends and living relatives older than me to consider and think about their current and future welfares so I can satellite myself around them as required on my travels.

I just need one “legally registered” home address for bank/PIP/Pension/Electoral Roll needs” so If you are unable to accept housing benefit (now frustratingly called Universal Credit until I’m 67) I can pay you directly from private income. I’m at that point in life where only long-term accommodation is required.

Preferably a one or two bedroom self-contained apartment with en-suite bath/shower room. But in the interim will consider house share until I find what and where I seek to live permanently and am as ever open-minded to working around any owner landlord. I have no kids so need to leave no property behind for any family….so sharing with like-minded people can be great fun as I make friends and colleagues very easily.

And am open-minded that there are landlord’s seeking mature house sharers so it makes their life easier. Having had my own rental property portfolio and vastly experienced as a property landlord I see both sides to each other’s needs and accommodate and put myself forward as a caretaker and an asset role as part of my personal profile

Hence why various locations are listed for my convenience.

Deposit and rent in advance already in place.

Despite the pain I endure I’m a very active person and have friends and associates all over the UK and beyond. So an ideal permanent base is sought so I can travel and visit old friends and business colleagues.

Please don't hesitate to call me...thanks.
