This ground-floor, one-bedroom retirement apartment in East Wittering offers a low-maintenance base close to village shops and West Wittering beach — a good option for someone looking to downsize and join a friendly retirement community. The open-plan sitting room/kitchen is dual-aspect and bright, with a bedroom featuring a fitted wardrobe and a practical shower room. Communal gardens and an on-site laundry add convenience, while unallocated parking provides easy car access.
Important practical points are straightforward: the flat uses electric storage heating and has an emergency call system in place, supporting comfortable, independent living. The development is within walking distance of local amenities including a post office, doctors and regular bus links, making daily errands and social activities accessible without relying on a car.
A material consideration is the lease length — 58 years remaining — which may make mortgage lending difficult or impossible for many buyers. The service charge is currently £2,177.83 per year and the tenure is leasehold; prospective purchasers should obtain independent legal and mortgage advice and fully check lease terms and any ground rent or reserve fund arrangements. The accommodation footprint is small (around 409 sq ft), so it suits a single occupant or couple comfortable with compact living and limited storage.
Chain-free sale and a well-kept communal setting make this a practical move for an older buyer seeking seaside living with neighbours nearby. Viewings are recommended for those who value convenience, community and easy access to coastal amenities, but buyers must factor in lease length and associated financing implications.
