Summary - Beatty Avenue, Brighton BN1 9ED
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Ideal for independent living near shops, green spaces and good transport links.
75% shared ownership; leasehold tenure with possible service charges
Bright, accessible retirement apartment in Library Court on Beatty Avenue, offered as 75% shared ownership. The home sits within a modern building (constructed post-2007) and provides a practical, single-floor layout designed for later-life independence. A generous double bedroom and an open-plan kitchen/lounge give comfortable everyday space, while a modern shower room improves accessibility and convenience.
Location is a clear strength: frequent public transport, nearby healthcare services, local shops, community centres and green spaces support independent living and social contact. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the property’s size (approx. 555 sq ft) suits downsizers wanting manageable maintenance.
Buyers should note this is leasehold and shared ownership (75%); additional fees such as service charges, ground rent or lease pack costs may apply. The neighbourhood records above-average crime levels and sits in a wider area classed as multi-ethnic hardship — factor local safety and support services into your decision. A professional survey and checks on the lease and service arrangements are recommended before committing.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, well-connected retirement option for someone seeking independent living close to community amenities, but purchasers must accept leasehold/shared-ownership constraints and review running costs carefully.
