Description

This two-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts in the charming village of Firle, nestled within the scenic South Downs National Park. Known for its historic significance and community spirit, properties in this desirable location rarely become available. This home requires substantial renovation, making it an ideal project for those looking to craft their dream residence—whether as a country retreat or a permanent family abode. Set at the end of a picturesque terrace, the property boasts both privacy and captivating views of the Downs. The existing layout comprises a snug living room, a rear kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom, all ripe for reconfiguration or extension (subject to planning permissions) to enhance both space and natural light. The expansive garden is one of this property’s standout features—an open canvas offering limitless potential for landscaping, vegetable gardening, or even the construction of an office or studio space. With mature hedges providing seclusion, this outdoor area promises peace and tranquillity. Firle itself is celebrated for its breathtaking countryside and tight-knit community atmosphere, featuring local amenities such as The Ram Inn pub and a delightful village shop. With excellent transport links nearby, including quick access to Lewes station with services into London Victoria, this property stands out not only for its potential but also for its idyllic setting amidst nature’s beauty.
