Situated on Littlehampton’s seafront, this compact two-bedroom second-floor flat offers direct access to coastal amenities, transport links and a small communal car park. The building’s Victorian character and good room proportions create a period feel, while the dual-aspect living room brings ample natural light. At c.631 sq ft the layout is practical for rental or owner-occupation.
Important practical points are upfront: the flat is leasehold with only 50 years remaining and is being marketed to cash buyers only. Many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend because of the short lease, so purchasers should factor lease-extension costs and leasehold restrictions into any offer. The property is chain-free and sold vacant, which could speed a straightforward transaction for the right buyer.
The interior will suit someone prepared to update and modernise. There is gas central heating to radiators and built-in hallway storage, but parts of the apartment appear dated and will benefit from refurbishment. Flood risk is assessed as medium and local crime levels are above average — important considerations for long-term lettings or families.
This flat suits a cash buyer or investor seeking a seafront location with rental potential or a buyer willing to invest in improvements. A full inspection and structural survey are recommended, and prospective purchasers should obtain specialist advice on lease extension options and associated costs before committing.
