Worthing's Property Landscape and What It Means for Block Management
Worthing's identity as a Victorian and Edwardian seaside resort has shaped its property stock in distinctive ways. The seafront stretching from Goring-by-Sea to East Worthing is lined with grand period buildings, many of which have been converted into flats over the decades. These properties present unique management challenges including salt-air corrosion of external facades, shared drainage systems serving multiple units, and conservation area restrictions that govern any external works. The town also boasts a notable collection of Art Deco buildings from the 1920s and 1930s, requiring specialist property management companies with experience in preserving architectural heritage while maintaining modern living standards for residents.
Worthing has one of the highest proportions of retirement properties on the South Coast, with purpose-built sheltered blocks and retirement flats concentrated in Goring-by-Sea, Ferring, and along the seafront. Managing these blocks requires particular attention to accessible communal areas, reliable lift maintenance, well-kept gardens, and responsive maintenance schedules that account for the needs of elderly and vulnerable residents. Inland, the suburbs of Broadwater, Tarring, and Salvington contain period terraces that have been subdivided into flats, where ageing fabric, shared access, and leasehold complexities present distinct challenges for any block management company.
Our Worthing team has direct experience managing all of these property types across the BN postcodes. We maintain strong working relationships with Worthing Borough Council (now Adur and Worthing Councils) and West Sussex County Council. As your managing agent, we typically achieve contractor response times of 24 to 48 hours for urgent repairs, with planned building maintenance programmes scheduled to minimise disruption to residents. Our knowledge of local planning regulations, conservation area restrictions, coastal building requirements, and building control standards means your block is always in compliant, capable hands.
“Since switching to Block, the difference in our seafront retirement block has been remarkable. Communication is excellent, the communal areas are always well maintained, and our service charge is finally being managed transparently. They genuinely understand the needs of Worthing residents, especially our older leaseholders who rely on prompt, dependable service.”- Margaret H., RMC Director, Goring-by-Sea, Worthing
