Description
Internally The property is accessed via a secure wall-mounted entry telephone system and forms part of a well-maintained building serving just two flats. The common parts have also been newly redecorated and newly carpeted, enhancing the overall presentation and sense of quality on arrival. The apartment itself is arranged over two floors, creating a greater sense of space and separation than is typically found in conventional flats. Having been newly redecorated throughout and benefitting from newly fitted carpets across the entire property, it offers a fresh and modern feel from the moment you enter. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a bright and spacious entrance hall, providing access to the generous west-facing lounge/dining room. This inviting living space is ideal for both relaxing and entertaining, with large double glazed windows allowing an abundance of natural light to pour in throughout the afternoon and evening. The circulation between the hall, lounge and kitchen also creates an excellent sense of flow and openness, which is further emphasised in the photography. The fitted kitchen enjoys a desirable south-facing aspect and has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both storage and workspace. A comprehensive range of fitted units provides ample cupboard and preparation space, along with a ceramic hob with extractor hood over. A brand new fridge and brand new freezer are included within the sale, offering added convenience for prospective purchasers. To the upper floor, there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both presented in excellent decorative order and benefiting from the property's recent improvements. The accommodation is completed by a fitted bathroom, which includes a thermostatic bar shower and a chrome ladder-style Wi-Fi controlled electric radiator, providing a modern and efficient finish to the space. The property will also benefit from the installation of new modern electric heating throughout, further enhancing comfort and energy efficiency. Overall, this is a superbly presented apartment in a highly convenient central location, offering generous accommodation, excellent presentation, and strong appeal to both owner-occupiers and investors.
Location Situated within the very centre of Worthing, the property enjoys immediate access to an excellent range of amenities. Comprehensive shopping facilities, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities can all be found nearby, whilst Beach House Park, Denton Gardens and Worthing's popular seafront are within easy walking distance. Warwick Street, renowned for its independent eateries, coffee shops and vibrant atmosphere, is also close at hand. For commuters, Worthing mainline railway station provides direct links along the south coast and to London, whilst regular bus services operate along Brighton Road, offering convenient transport connections throughout the local area.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
