Summary - FLAT 15, FRANCIS COURT, 47, CHURCH STREET, LITTLEHAMPTON BN17 5PY
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Level-access one-bed with integrated kitchen and well-kept communal grounds.
Ground-floor one-bedroom with patio access to communal gardens
Quiet, ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in the purpose-built Francis Court development, designed for over-60s and ideal for someone seeking low-maintenance, single-level living. The lounge opens through patio doors onto well-kept communal gardens, giving a private feel and easy outdoor access without garden upkeep. The fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and the double bedroom has built-in wardrobes, so the flat is ready to move into with no onward chain.
Practical running details are clear: the property has double glazing and electric storage heating, off-street non-allocated parking, and a long lease (about 105 years remaining). Service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £2,734 pa service charge, £425 ground rent) to cover communal maintenance and garden upkeep—this keeps the grounds neat but affects ongoing costs. Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow, which could matter if high-speed internet is needed.
For downsizers or retirees who favour convenience and a coastal town location, this apartment offers accessible living close to Littlehampton’s seafront, shops and transport links. It’s compact (approx. 510 sq ft) with a generous living room, so it suits a single occupant or couple wanting straightforward accommodation with communal amenities. Note the electric heating system may give higher energy bills compared with gas-heated homes, and parking is unallocated.
Overall this is a practical, well-maintained retirement flat with direct garden access and minimal upkeep required, balanced by leasehold charges, electric heating and limited private outdoor space.
