This charming Grade II Listed cottage presents a promising opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with renovation potential. Located just a short stroll from the vibrant High Street and Mainline Railway Station, the home is ideally positioned to take advantage of all that Lewes has to offer.
Recently refurbished, the cottage features a modern kitchen and bathroom, providing a comfortable living space while retaining its historical character. The bright sitting room welcomes ample natural light and offers built-in storage, with stairs leading up to the versatile upper level. The kitchen, finished in soft grey tones with complementary tiled splashbacks, includes sufficient cabinetry and direct access to the quaint courtyard garden.
The ground floor bathroom is equipped with contemporary fixtures, including a bath with shower over and stylish tiled walls. An advantageous study landing area overlooks the street, making it a functional space for work or leisure. The generously sized bedroom seamlessly connects to this study area, showcasing exposed timber beams and offering scenic views.
In addition, there is a loft room accessible via ladder, currently used for storage but presenting additional potential for conversion into usable space. The appealing brick-laid courtyard garden is an inviting outdoor retreat and provides convenient access to Market Lane—a delightful thoroughfare lined with characterful homes and local businesses.
Investors will appreciate the possibility of creating a second bedroom by repositioning the staircase, subject to requisite permissions. This enhancement could substantially increase both living space and property value.
The surrounding location enhances this property’s appeal; nestled in the heart of Lewes town centre, it enjoys proximity to an array of independent shops and eateries found along Market Street. With the Mainline Railway Station only a six-minute walk away (according to Google Maps), residents can easily access Brighton, London, and Gatwick Airport.
With gas central heating and freehold status as well as its historical significance being Grade II Listed, this cottage offers both comfort and alluring investment potential in an increasingly sought-after area.
