Description

This end-terraced Grade II Listed cottage, featuring a charming blend of flint and brick construction under a clay tiled roof, presents an exciting refurbishment opportunity in the picturesque Alciston village. The property is sold with vacant possession and no onward chain, allowing for immediate occupation upon completion. It includes a manageable front and rear garden, with the latter backing onto open countryside and offering scenic views of the South Downs. Given its historical significance, this cottage requires renovation and some remedial repairs, making it an intriguing project for those looking to restore its character while modernizing the living spaces. Internally, the layout comprises a sitting room with an open fireplace, kitchen with essential fixtures in need of updating, and a family bathroom. Two bedrooms are located upstairs, providing pleasant views of the surrounding area. With mains water and electricity connected, as well as an oil-fired central heating system, basic utilities are in place. The notable condition issues include historical structural movement that may necessitate careful consideration—particularly for buyers who may seek finance options. This could deter some purchasers but also presents a chance for enhancement by savvy investors willing to undertake necessary work to reinstate this property's original charm.
