Set quietly on Military Road with the River Rother running along the rear boundary, this three-bedroom end-of-terrace home offers a rare riverside plot within walking distance of historic Rye. The plot is generous for the area, with a lawn down to the river, patio for alfresco dining and a garage with direct garden access; the wide driveway accommodates multiple vehicles.
Internally the layout suits a family seeking defined living spaces: separate lounge and dining room, kitchen, ground-floor WC and three first-floor bedrooms. The property is of mid-20th century construction and is in largely original condition, so there is clear potential to modernise or extend (including a double-storey extension subject to the usual consents).
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, no flood risk, double glazing and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Heating is electric boiler and radiators; the EPC is C. The house will appeal to families wanting riverside tranquillity close to town and to buyers looking for renovation/extension potential to add value.
Buyers should note a few material points: the interior needs updating and modern finishes; any extension or additional parking will require planning permission; the local area records above-average crime levels compared with regional norms. These factors are reflected in the property’s scope for improvement and potential uplift after works.
