This ground-floor two-bedroom flat in Lancing village delivers practical, light-filled living in a mid‑20th‑century purpose‑built block. The layout is compact and efficient: a separate living/dining room, contemporary kitchen and stylish shower room make it ready to occupy for first-time buyers or tenants.
Stand‑out practical benefits include a long lease (circa 940 years), a private garage and no onward chain, which simplify purchase and rental prospects. The flat is neutrally presented and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating for year‑round comfort.
Notable costs and considerations are factual: the service charge is relatively high at about £1,706 pa and ground rent is £30 pa. The building dates from the 1950s–60s with a flat roof and some external maintenance noted; internal finishes and carpets are tidy but dated, so light updating would add value. Crime levels in the area are above average, and communal walls are cavity construction with assumed no added insulation — energy improvements are possible.
Overall this is a straightforward, chain‑free purchase for a first‑time buyer or investor who values location, a long lease and a garage, and who is comfortable budgeting for service charges and modest updating to maximise rental or resale value.
