A super 2nd floor RETIREMENT FLAT in the much sought after Maltings development in Westgate a short walk from the cathedral and city centre.
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom, two-bathroom retirement apartment located in The Maltings, Chichester, offers a convenient and well-situated lifestyle. Its location on Westgate provides excellent access to the city centre, local shops, and amenities. Nearby are several schools, including Chichester College Group (rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted), while Chichester railway station offers connections to other parts of the UK. The apartment itself appears to be clean and well-maintained, though the provided photos suggest the decor and fittings might benefit from some modernising. The bathrooms, kitchen, and living areas are functional but show their age, typical of a retirement property.
The absence of a private garden is a notable feature; however, residents have access to communal gardens within the development, as shown in the photographs. While not extensive, these gardens appear well-maintained and provide a space for relaxation. The apartment’s location in a desirable area and its accessibility to amenities, transport, and schools will be appealing to many potential buyers. The listed price appears to be within the range of other retirement apartments in the immediate vicinity and is reasonably competitive. A potential buyer should weigh the advantages of the location and convenience against the need for possible future modernisation.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
