A NEW development in central Worthing is being built by Rocco Homes.

There will be 32 apartments plus a rare commercial opportunity of a ground floor 2,399 sq. ft open plan unit.

This will be offered on a freehold or leasehold basis.

The space has planning permission for retail, office and medical use.

It was previously home to Bunces Home Hardware.

Michael Jones has been instructed as the selling agent.

Director Steve Berrett said: “We are delighted to be involved in this scheme and to be continuing our working relationship with Rocco Homes.

“In a growing market where commercial premises are highly sought after, we are really pleased to be able to bring this unique and brand-new opportunity to the market.

“Worthing is a highly sought-after location and great town to invest in and with its excellent transport links, this development is a great opportunity for businesses.”

The area has seen significant investment over the last few years with major residential and commercial development proposed opposite at Station Square.

Construction of Lennox Gate in Chapel Road is well underway with completion expected next spring.

Off-plan sales of the residential apartments are due to be released this autumn.
