This ground-floor two-double-bedroom flat on Briar Lane offers an affordable route into Billingshurst with a 40% shared ownership option at £104,000. The layout is practical and light, with a spacious lounge that opens via double doors onto a private patio — useful extra outdoor space for a flat. The modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and the contemporary bathroom mean you can move in with minimal immediate expense.
Practical running costs are straightforward: an EPC rating B and council tax band C help keep energy and local tax costs reasonable. The property includes an allocated off-street parking space and benefits from a long lease of 119 years. Service charges run at about £58.57 per month (circa £703 annually) and ground rent is £150 per year — modest but important to factor into monthly outgoings.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or couple looking for a low-maintenance base in a pleasant, semi-rural small-town setting with fast broadband and very low local crime. Shared ownership makes this a lower-cost entry, but it also means you won’t initially hold the freehold and staircasing would be required to buy a larger share in future. The flat is average in size at about 785 sq ft and generally move-in ready, with no notable structural or flood risk listed.
If you value outdoor space, sensible running costs and an accessible route onto the property ladder in a prosperous area just off the town fringe, this flat is a practical option. Be aware of the leasehold arrangement, the ongoing service charge and ground rent when comparing monthly budgets or mortgage affordability.
