Summary - 26 KEERE STREET LEWES BN7 1TY
3 bed 2 bath Terraced
Three double bedrooms, garden and South Downs views within easy walk of station and shops.
Grade II listed town-centre cottage with strong period character
This Grade II listed terraced cottage sits on picturesque Keere Street, moments from Lewes High Street and the mainline station. The 1,260 sq ft layout delivers three double bedrooms, two modern bathrooms and a generous 26ft open-plan living, kitchen and dining area with a brick fireplace and wood burner. A further dual-aspect sitting room, west-facing courtyard garden and garden workshop add practical space and outdoor privacy.
The house retains strong period character—exposed beams, wide-board floorboards, sash-style windows and flint/brick facades—making it appealing to buyers who value historic detail and South Downs views. Secondary glazing and electric underfloor heating are already installed, and the property is freehold with convenient town-centre access to shops, schools and transport links.
Important practical points: the house requires renovation and updating; it has an EPC grade of F and the listing status will complicate alterations. A small area is affected by a flying freehold (approx. 1m x 1m) between the ground and first floor stairwell; this should be checked by buyers and their solicitors. Council tax is above average and local recorded crime levels are higher than typical.
Overall, this is a large, characterful town-centre home with clear scope to improve and personalise. It will most suit buyers who want a historic property with flexible living space, value central Lewes living and are prepared for listed-building constraints and renovation work.
