This top-floor retirement apartment in St. Aidan’s Court offers comfortable, low-maintenance living with far-reaching views towards the South Downs. The two double bedrooms, well-presented kitchen and modern shower room make it ready to occupy, and double glazing helps with insulation. Residents enjoy communal gardens, a lounge, laundry facilities and on-site parking.
The building is a modern, purpose-built development with a secure entry system and lift access, making daily life easier for older buyers or those downsizing. Electric storage heaters and mains electricity provide heating and power; the EPC is C. This flat is sold chain free and has a long lease (around 102 years remaining), which supports purchase clarity and mortgageability.
Notable practical points are straightforward: the property is leasehold with a ground rent figure (circa £425) and communal charges will apply. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas, and the area records above-average crime, which some buyers may wish to investigate further. The flat is conveniently close to local shops and the seafront, but it does not have private garden space beyond communal grounds.
Overall this is a sensible, well-maintained retirement home for someone seeking a manageable, social setting near the coast. It will suit downsizers looking for convenience and communal facilities, but buyers should factor leasehold costs, electric heating and local area considerations into their decision.
