This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment at Ryebank offers a contemporary, low-entry route onto the property ladder via shared ownership. With an open-plan living/kitchen area, Juliet balcony and allocated parking, the home feels bright and efficiently arranged across 571 sq ft. The property is new build, ready-finished with flooring throughout and practical fitted kitchen appliances.
Shared ownership means you can buy a 25%–75% initial share (25% from £46,250) with a minimum 5% mortgage deposit. Rent on the unsold share and an estate charge apply — example rent £317.97 pcm plus total estimated estate charge £70.00 pcm; service charge shown £840 (below average). The home is leasehold and the full market value is £185,000.
Practical considerations are presented clearly: the property is leasehold, images may be representative rather than exact, and council tax band is not confirmed. The local area is a peaceful village with good access to Arundel, Littlehampton and the South Downs, but recorded crime is above average — worth checking if local security is a priority.
For a first-time buyer seeking an affordable, modern flat with straightforward access to regional towns, this apartment is a solid starter choice. It suits buyers wanting low-entry ownership and the potential to staircase later; those needing full ownership or concerned about local crime should factor these points into their decision.
