- Private south-facing rear garden with greenhouse and pond
- Garage plus driveway providing secure off-street parking
- Sunroom/utility with plumbing for washer and dryer
- Leasehold with 155 years remaining (long lease)

This three-bedroom first-floor flat sits in central Worthing, a short walk from the seafront, train station and local shops. The apartment keeps many original period features — high ceilings, sash bay windows and decorative cornices — and benefits from a private south-facing garden, garage and driveway, a rare combination for a first-floor flat.
Accommodation is spacious for the size: a large lounge/diner with sea-aspect from the sunroom, three good bedrooms, a modern-fitted kitchen and a contemporary shower room. Practical extras include a useful sunroom/utility area with plumbing for laundry, loft access for storage and off-street parking plus a garage with power and lighting.
Important facts to note: the property is leasehold with 155 years remaining and an EPC rating of F. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so running costs will be higher than modern gas-heated homes. Presentation is traditional and there is scope to modernise or improve insulation and heating to reduce bills and add value.
This home will suit families or buyers seeking a central seaside location with outside space and secure parking, and those prepared to carry out energy and cosmetic improvements. The long lease and low council tax band are practical advantages; buyers should budget for potential upgrades to heating and insulation.
