Area shows higher crime and deprivation; visit at different times
Bright, chain-free two-bedroom second-floor retirement apartment just a short walk from Worthing seafront and town centre amenities. The living room faces west over mature communal gardens, and the building offers on-site managers, communal lounge, laundry and a rooftop garden—useful social spaces for independent living. The flat includes a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom, double glazing, and generous storage in the entrance hall. The 99-year lease and no ground rent give long-term security for buyers.
Practical considerations: heating is by electric storage radiators and main fuel is electricity, so energy costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. Parking is unallocated and requires a residents’ permit. The property is compact (approximately 398 sq ft) and suits those wanting manageable, low-maintenance accommodation rather than large living spaces. Service charge is about £200pcm (£2,400pa) which covers communal services and on-site management.
Location is a major strength—shops, cafés, bus routes and Worthing mainline station are within easy reach, and the promenade is roughly 120 metres away. However, local area statistics show higher crime and deprivation levels; prospective purchasers should view the neighbourhood at different times to judge suitability. The building’s communal facilities and onsite managers are supportive for retirement living, while the chain-free status allows a quicker move.
Overall, this property will appeal to buyers seeking a small, well-located, low-maintenance retirement home near the sea, or investors looking for a long leasehold retirement unit. It offers immediate occupation with modest running costs, offset by electric heating and parking limitations.
