Ground-floor retirement flat, one bedroom
A ground-floor, one-bedroom retirement flat in a well-regarded development close to Lancing Village. The layout is compact and practical, with a comfortable living room, a bedroom of average size and a separate bathroom — suited to a single occupant or couple seeking low-maintenance living.
Residents benefit from attractive communal gardens, a communal lounge and laundry room that encourage socialising, plus off-road parking. The development is quiet and secure, with no onward chain so the property is available for prompt occupation.
Practical considerations include electric storage heating and an 81-year lease remaining. Service charge and ground rent apply (listed amounts) and should be factored into ongoing costs. The immediate area shows higher-than-average deprivation and crime rates, so buyers should satisfy themselves about local services and safety.
This flat will suit downsizers who prioritise convenience, communal facilities and easy access to shops and transport. It also has modest investment potential because of its retirement-specific tenancy and chain-free status, but requires buyers to be comfortable with leasehold terms and running costs.
