This spacious one-bedroom ground-floor flat sits in a quiet cul-de-sac within easy walking distance of Billingshurst village and station. The generous reception room and separate kitchen give a flexible living space suited to a first-time buyer or investor. Allocated and visitor parking add everyday convenience.
The apartment requires some general modernisation — the kitchen and bathroom are dated and the property uses electric storage heating. The EPC is D and the lease has approximately 89 years remaining; ground rent is £50 per year and the service charge is about £1,700 per year. These are manageable running costs, but the lease length and renovation needs should be factored into purchase plans.
Set in a comfortable neighbourhood on the edge of a small town, the flat benefits from local amenities including shops, schools and a leisure centre within a short stroll. There is no flood risk and the build is from the 1980s/1990s with double glazing. High local crime levels are recorded for the area and should be considered when evaluating suitability.
For a buyer looking to personalise a starter home or an investor seeking a lettable ground-floor unit close to transport and village facilities, this property offers solid potential once modernisation works are completed. The layout and parking make it an easy-to-manage home with clear scope to add value.
