Description

Nestled in the highly sought-after Wallands area, this older-style semi-detached house presents a blend of classic charm and significant renovation potential. With three generously sized double bedrooms spread across two floors, the property offers ample space for both family living and creative enhancement. A first-floor bathroom adds convenience, while the ground floor features an entrance hall leading to two spacious reception rooms and a kitchen. Outdoor space is a highlight, with a well-proportioned front garden that accommodates off-street parking for at least two vehicles. The south-west facing rear garden is particularly inviting, complete with a newly landscaped paved patio and established planting beds, making it an ideal spot for relaxation or outdoor entertaining. From this elevated position, residents can enjoy views over the Newhaven Valley and the scenic South Downs. This property represents an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in a home that requires modernisation. Notably, planning permission has been approved for a loft conversion, garage conversion, and a rear extension (reference SDNP/24/01510/HOUS), enabling buyers to significantly increase living space and enhance property value. Fitzjohns Road benefits from its proximity to local amenities and community resources; it’s just a 15-minute walk from the historic Lewes town centre, where you'll find independent shops, cafes, pubs, and restaurants. Three supermarkets are also nearby, along with the award-winning Depot cinema adjacent to Lewes mainline railway station which provides direct access to London Victoria and Brighton. The location fosters community spirit with events like annual street parties and monthly gatherings. Families will appreciate being close to Wallands Primary School as well as various recreational pathways through the picturesque South Downs. This property not only offers comfortable living but also stands as an advantageous investment in an area known for its appeal and growth potential.
