Low-maintenance two-bedroom retirement flat with 24-hour manager and excellent transport links.
Third-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment, approx. 854 sq ft
Light-filled third-floor retirement apartment offering comfortable, low-maintenance living in central Chichester. The well-proportioned two double bedrooms, lounge-diner and good-sized kitchen sit within a purpose-built development completed around 1996–2002, with double glazing and an EPC rating of B. Residents benefit from a 24-hour manager, care line and alarm, communal lounge, restaurant with discounted meals, laundry room and off-street parking — practical features for independent retired life.
This flat is particularly convenient for getting around: bus stops are directly outside, Chichester train station is approximately 300 metres away and the city centre, canal basin and retail park are all a short walk. The apartment faces well-maintained communal gardens and has rooftop views over the city — a quiet outlook despite the central location.
Practicalities to note: the property is leasehold and uses electric storage heaters as the main heating source. The development sits in an area with very high recorded crime levels, which prospective buyers should factor into insurance and personal security considerations. The apartment is average-sized (circa 854 sq ft) and may suit buyers seeking comfortable, manageable accommodation rather than large family living.
Overall this is a sensible option for downsizers who prioritise central convenience, on-site support and low-upkeep living. It provides clear scope for immediate occupation with minimal work, though buyers wanting gas heating or a freehold property should consider those limits before viewing.
