Summary - Military Road, Rye, East Sussex, TN31 TN31 7NY
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious period home on half‑acre plot with studio and river views — Grade II listed.
Double-fronted detached period home with strong character
Set on a very large half‑acre plot on Military Road, this substantial detached period home combines strong character with practical family space. The double-fronted house offers multiple reception rooms, a large kitchen with utility, cellar storage and a separate triple‑aspect studio — all giving flexibility for home working or hobbies. A large double garage and good off‑road parking add everyday convenience.
Important practical points are clear: the property is Grade II listed which will restrict alterations and could make some upgrades difficult, and the building fabric shows original cavity walls with no added insulation (assumed). Glazing dates are unknown and there is a single principal bathroom shown in the data, so modernisation may be needed to meet contemporary family needs. Council tax is noted as quite expensive and the immediate area records above‑average crime.
For families or those seeking a semi‑rural retreat close to Rye, the mature, gently sloping gardens and woodland edge deliver privacy, views and generous outdoor space for children, gardening or pets. The cellar offers storage or potential conversion (subject to permissions) and the studio with mezzanine is a valuable home‑working asset. Flood risk is very low and broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting remote working and connectivity.
This home will suit buyers who value period character and scale and accept the maintenance and listed‑building constraints that come with a house of this type. Early viewing is recommended to assess layout, scope for sensitive updating and the garden’s full potential.
