This bright first-floor Edwardian apartment blends period character with practical conveniences. High ceilings and a large bay window create an airy living/dining room, while two double bedrooms provide comfortable space for couples, sharers or a small family. A private rear garden and a garage with parking add rare outside space and storage for a flat.
The apartment is double glazed and heated by mains gas radiators; it comes with a share of freehold and low council tax. The modern kitchen and shower room make the home move-in ready, and an entrance-hall utility room adds useful storage. At about 813 sq ft, the layout feels larger than many typical two-bed flats.
Location is a key asset: a short walk to Littlehampton’s beaches, river and town centre, plus good rail links to Gatwick and London. The property also offers clear rental potential (approx. £1,250pcm), which could suit buyers wanting flexibility or part-investment income.
Important considerations: the building’s solid brick walls likely have no cavity insulation, so heating costs and thermal comfort may be higher than modern builds. The service charge is approximately £1,800pa. Broadband speeds are average and the wider local area registers as relatively deprived — factors to weigh alongside the seaside location and transport links.
