This extended five-bedroom detached home in Cranedown, Lewes, has been newly renovated and presents generous family accommodation across three floors. The ground floor offers a bright kitchen/dining room, sitting room with garden access, utility and a large studio/office extension that could serve as a ground-floor bedroom. A private south-east facing garden and driveway parking complete the outdoor appeal, with the rear boundary backing onto a tree-lined paddock.
The first floor houses three comfortable bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom; the attic contains two further bedrooms, one with vaulted ceilings and strong garden views. The top-floor layout offers clear potential to add an ensuite where plumbing provisions exist, subject to planning and building works. The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C.
Notable practical points are that there is currently a single bathroom for five bedrooms and the property’s cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, which could mean higher running costs until upgraded. Council Tax is in a high band. That said, the house’s size, flexible reception rooms, large plot and proximity to Lewes station and local schools make it well suited to an established family seeking space, a home office and easy access to the South Downs.
Viewing is recommended to appreciate the room proportions, garden aspect and the studio extension’s versatility.
