This well-presented ground-floor two-bedroom apartment is aimed at buyers aged 60 and over seeking low-maintenance, comfortable accommodation close to local shops and services. Set in a small, well-managed block of 12 apartments, it benefits from a new 990-year lease, allocated parking and its own small patio overlooking communal gardens and adjoining allotments.
Inside, the flat offers a generous lounge/dining room with bay doors to the patio, an attractive fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a main bathroom and a convenient en-suite to the principal bedroom. UPVC double glazing, recently fitted carpets and emergency pull cords in main rooms add to the sense of practicality and safety for older buyers.
Practical considerations include electric storage heating and electricity as the main fuel, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated properties. The building carries an annual service charge (around £1,656) and slow broadband speeds have been reported locally — factors to weigh alongside the peppercorn ground rent and chain-free sale.
Overall this apartment suits someone looking to downsize or retire to a secure, central spot on Hayling Island with easy access to Mengham shops, health services and public transport. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout, garden outlook and ready-to-move-into presentation.
