About
Guide price £325,000 - £335,000 Situated on ever-popular Western Road, this charming end-of-terrace cottage perfectly captures the character and individuality that Lewes has to offer.
Thoughtfully improved by the current owner, the property offers beautifully presented accommodation alongside a number of clever additions that maximise both space and practicality.
The cosy sitting room with a log burner-oven provides a welcoming heart to the home, with glass panel flooring that looks down into the cellar/snug below.
The characterful wide floorboards are a charming feature, reinforcing the home’s traditional cottage feel. The kitchen offers an attractive and practical space for everyday living.
A notable feature of the property is the cellar/snug which has been transformed into a cosy retreat.
Ideal as a reading room, meditation space, hobby room, work space or simply somewhere to relax and unwind, it provides a unique and versatile addition rarely found in homes of this size.
Upstairs, the generous double bedroom has been cleverly adapted to incorporate a fitted wardrobe, creating excellent storage whilst maintaining a bright and spacious feel.
The bathroom is light, bright and well presented with a fresh white suite. Further benefits include a lit boarded loft, providing exceptional storage space.
Outside, the sunny south facing, 40 feet (12 meter) rear garden enjoys a private feel, attractive high flint walling and useful rear access, creating a wonderful outdoor space to enjoy throughout the year.
Positioned at the top of Lewes High Street, the property is just a short walk from the town’s independent shops, cafés, pubs, restaurants, mainline railway station and the South Downs.
An ideal first-time purchase, someone downsizing, rental investment, holiday home or lock-up-and-leave property, offering character, convenience and a quintessential Lewes lifestyle.
