Summary - 56 Byron Court, Stockbridge Road, CHICHESTER PO19 8ES
2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Light two-bedroom flat with on-site management and communal gardens, ideal for independent retirees.
Chain free with long lease (≈103 years remaining)
This bright two-bedroom retirement apartment sits within a well-managed contemporary development on Stockbridge Road, close to Chichester city centre, the canal basin and transport links. The development offers 24-hour on-site management, communal lounge, laundry facilities and landscaped gardens — practical features for independent older buyers seeking support and social spaces. The flat is chain free and comes with a long lease (approximately 103 years remaining), making it straightforward to purchase.
Internally the layout is traditional with a sitting/dining room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a bath/shower room across about 809 sq ft. Double glazing and electric storage heating are fitted; note that heating is electric rather than gas and costs should be checked by buyers. Allocated parking and pleasant communal grounds add everyday convenience and outdoor amenity.
Buyers should be aware this is a leasehold retirement property. The building is in an urban area with a recorded very high local crime rate — confirm security measures and how this affects insurance and service arrangements. Service charges and any additional management fees are not specified here, so budget for communal running costs when assessing affordability.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking an affordable, low-maintenance retirement base with on-site support and good local amenities. It presents immediate move-in potential but is best for purchasers comfortable with electric heating, leasehold ownership and communal living.
