Low-maintenance living with strong communal facilities and support services.
South-facing private patio with direct living-room access
A well-presented, ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Amelia Court, a purpose-built McCarthy Stone retirement development in central Worthing. The living room opens onto a south-facing private patio and communal gardens, bringing good daylight and an outdoor sitting area without maintenance hassle. On-site facilities include a table-service restaurant, homeowners’ lounge, guest suite, laundry, and regular social events — making day-to-day living easy and sociable.
Practical features include a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, and a wet-room style bathroom fitted with grab rails and non-slip flooring. The development provides 24-hour emergency call, a camera door-entry system, lifts to all floors and a mobility scooter store — suited to buyers seeking supported independent living.
Notable costs and constraints are clear: this is a leasehold retirement flat (age 60+ restriction) with 111 years remaining on the lease, an annual service charge of £8,902.02 and ground rent of £435 pa. Heating is by electric storage radiators and main fuel is electricity, which can increase running costs. The advertised area records higher crime levels — worth checking personally if location safety is a priority.
Overall, this compact apartment will suit an older buyer wanting low-maintenance, community-focused living with on-site support and communal amenities. It offers convenience and peace of mind but comes with relatively high service charges and running costs that should be factored into affordability calculations.
