Summary - Flat 3, 38 Shelley Road, WORTHING BN11 4BX
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious rooms and new 999‑year lease in Worthing town centre.
South-facing open-plan lounge/kitchen with re-fitted kitchen
A bright one-bedroom first-floor flat in the heart of Worthing’s Poet’s district, offered with a new 999‑year lease on completion. The principal living space is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with a south-facing bay window that brings good daylight into the room. The kitchen has been re-fitted and the shower room is modern, making the apartment ready to occupy or let without major immediate works.
The bedroom is unusually large for a one‑bed and benefits from an east‑facing sash bay. Residents share attractive communal gardens and there are four unallocated parking spaces for six flats, with additional on‑street parking nearby (permit/controls apply). Service charge is £2,640 per year (paid half‑yearly), and council tax is in Band A.
Important practical points: heating is by electric storage heaters and the building has solid brick walls (no known cavity insulation), so running costs may be higher than modern equivalents. The block is in a very high crime and very deprived local area classification, which may affect resale or tenant demand. Viewing is essential to appreciate the layout and communal setting.
Overall this flat suits a first-time buyer or buy‑to‑let investor who wants an immediately habitable, characterful one‑bed in a central, well‑connected location, and who is comfortable with electric heating, a higher service charge and the parking being on a first‑come basis.
