primsry home

[premium]

I am unmarried and have lived with my parents up to the present time. Several years ago my grandparents left me a property which I have never lived in but have let out.
I am now contemplating moving into my previously rented property as my future permanent home.

As the property has increased in value significantly since I inherited it there is probably a capital gains issue.
As I plan to reside in the property for the foreseeable future will the passage of time eventually cancel out the CGT liability, and is there any action I can take to ensure that my property eventually enjoys the unencumbered status of my primary home

The longer you reside in the property the smaller will be your eventual CGT charge on a future disposal which may in fact ultimately be nil.

You have to live in the property; DVLA stuff registered there; electoral role etc etc.
