A great grandmother who has lived in the same house for 77 years has seen its value rise by more than £549,000. Winifred Flemming, 106, bought her home at the end of World War Two back in 1945 for just £800.
Having lived there for almost eight decades, Winifred's property is now worth £550,000 - at least 550 times what she initially bought it for. The pensioner, who is believed to be Britain's oldest homeowner, wants to remain in her home despite calls to move into assisted living.
Winifred, known as Win, owns a semi-detached home in West Wickham, Kent which has three bedrooms, a garden at the front and back and a shared driveway.
