Chain-free 3-bed terraced home near Rustington beach — renovate and add value..
Chain free freehold terraced house, circa 1967–75 construction
Large room proportions throughout; approx. 997 sq ft total
Three bedrooms (or flexible 3/4 layout); single family bathroom
Requires modernisation throughout; renovation opportunity to add value
Cavity walls assumed uninsulated; insulation and upgrades recommended
Off-street parking provided; small rear garden/plot only
Slow broadband in area; excellent mobile signal
Area records higher crime and local deprivation — factor into plans
Set just a short walk from Rustington beach and the village high street, this three-bedroom mid-terrace offers clear scope to create a comfortable coastal home or an income-producing asset. Sold freehold and chain free, the property is solidly built (circa 1967–75) and provides generously sized rooms across approximately 997 sq ft — a rare footprint for this price band.
The house requires modernisation throughout, so it will suit buyers with a renovation brief: contractors, investors or families wanting to personalise space. There is genuine potential to add value by updating the kitchen, bathroom and insulation (walls are cavity with no confirmed insulation). The single bathroom, moderate garden/plot and small rear outside space limit expansion without structural changes.
Practical positives include off-street parking, mains gas central heating, double glazing (unknown fit date) and a cheap council tax band. Local amenities are excellent: strong nearby primary and secondary schools, supermarkets, cafés and leisure facilities, plus excellent mobile signal and straightforward transport links for commuting.
Be clear about the key drawbacks: the home needs renovation, broadband speeds are slow, the local area records higher crime and relative deprivation, and the plot is small. For buyers who prioritise location and size over turnkey condition, this property offers a cost-effective entry to a popular coastal village with scope to improve and capitalise on rental or resale upside.
