About this home

A beautifully presented and exceptionally spacious two-bedroom ground floor apartment, enviably positioned right on the seafront in the highly sought-after village of Rustington. Enjoying lovely sea views, a private south-facing patio area, an impressive kitchen/breakfast room, en-suite facilities to the principal bedroom and the added benefit of a private garage, this superb property offers an appealing blend of space, comfort and relaxed coastal living. Offered for sale with no onward chain.

Situated in a particularly desirable position within Rustington, the apartment is ideally placed to enjoy the best of village and coastal life, with the beach quite literally on the doorstep and the village centre's excellent range of shops, cafés, restaurants and other amenities all within easy reach.

One of the standout features is the wonderfully bright and spacious lounge, which provides ample room for both comfortable seating and a separate dining area. French doors open from the dining area, while sliding patio doors lead directly onto the property's own south-facing paved patio, providing a lovely spot to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the sea views and coastal surroundings.

The property further benefits from a particularly impressive, much larger than average kitchen/breakfast room, offering an abundance of storage and worktop space, together with plenty of room for a breakfast table and chairs.

The accommodation continues with two generous double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying the added luxury of its own en-suite shower room. A separate bathroom serves the second bedroom and guests, featuring a double-length walk-in shower, wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail.

Further benefits include its own private entrance, nearby parking and a garage providing valuable additional storage or secure parking.

Combining an enviable seafront position with exceptionally generous accommodation, private outdoor space and the convenience of a garage, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious coastal home in one of Rustington's most desirable locations. Equally suited to permanent occupation, a relaxing seaside retreat or an investment opportunity, early viewing is highly recommended.
