Summary - First Floor Flat, 16b Shakespeare Road BN11 4AR
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free, long lease one-bedroom flat in West Worthing — ideal first home or buy-to-let.
Chain free with share of freehold and c.998-year lease remaining
Bright and well-presented one-bedroom first-floor flat in West Worthing, offered chain-free with a long lease and share of freehold. The apartment sits in an Edwardian semi with high ceilings and sash windows that flood the open-plan living and dining area with natural light. The modern fitted kitchen and contemporary bathroom make the property easy to move into.
The layout is efficient across approximately 441 sq ft: a generous double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, a bright living/dining space and a compact but practical kitchen. Practical advantages include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and easy access to Worthing station, seafront and local shops — useful for commuters and first-time buyers.
Buyers should note the building’s age and traditional solid-brick construction, which likely means limited wall insulation and period maintenance. The wider area scores high for crime and is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale and rental appeal. There is no flooding risk, the lease has around 998 years remaining and council tax is very cheap.
This flat suits a first-time buyer, single occupant or investor seeking a low-maintenance property close to transport links and local amenities. Its chain-free status and long lease make for a straightforward purchase, while modest room sizes mean it’s best for buyers prioritising location and convenience over expansive living space.
