Set in the quiet village fringe of Hunston, this first-floor one-bedroom apartment offers a straightforward, entry-level purchase with a new 125-year lease and no onward chain. The layout includes a bright living room, large double bedroom, fitted kitchen and bathroom, plus external storage in a private shed and access to communal gardens. Its modest size (about 485 sq ft) suits a single buyer or couple seeking affordable access to the Chichester area.
The property is presented sold as seen and will suit buyers willing to undertake some updating. The kitchen is dated and the apartment would benefit from modernization to improve aesthetics and energy performance. Service charge and communal upkeep should be factored in—current annual service charge is £1,865.45.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing, a long lease (125 years) and a very low council tax band (A). Broadband speeds are slow locally and mobile signal is average; these connectivity limits may affect remote working or streaming without upgrades. There is no flooding risk and the building is a mid-20th‑century brick block with communal outdoor space.
This apartment is best suited to first-time buyers seeking an affordable foothold near Chichester, or investors looking for a low-entry buy-to-let with straightforward maintenance. Be aware the flat is sold as seen and will require cosmetic and possibly systems updating to unlock greater value.
