Light, modern and low-maintenance living in the heart of Chichester makes this two-bedroom apartment an attractive option for downsizers or city-centre buyers. Set on an upper floor of a purpose-built block constructed in 2021, the apartment offers a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, two double bedrooms (master with en-suite) and generous storage including a large pantry. The lift serves every floor, easing access and daily life.
Practical running costs and ownership details are straightforward: the lease has 119 years remaining, annual service charge approximately £2,217.49 and ground rent £250 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters, which keeps installation simple but may mean higher running costs compared with gas. Council Tax is in Band C.
Location is a clear strength — city-centre position close to Chichester Station, shops, cafes, theatres and easy access north to the South Downs and south to Chichester Harbour. The apartment is offered chain-free, allowing a quicker move.
Buyers should note a couple of material considerations: the building sits in an area recorded with very high crime levels, which could affect security needs and insurance. Broadband speeds are average and there is no private garden space. These factors are balanced by modern construction, lift access and a low-maintenance urban lifestyle.
