Summary - 198 FLAT 1 HIGH STREET LEWES BN7 2NS
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Spacious 2-bed period apartment on Lewes High Street with South Downs views.
Large 912 sq ft first-floor apartment with period features and high ceilings
Set within a handsome Georgian building on Lewes High Street, this unusually large 2-bedroom first-floor apartment combines period character with practical living. The sitting room's feature bay window frames long views toward the South Downs, and the spacious kitchen/diner offers solid granite worktops and integrated appliances — a comfortable base in the town centre. Communal gas central heating and good fittings mean the flat is ready to live in.
Outside is a substantial, well-tended communal garden approached via a gated passage from Market Street, with separate paved seating patios and useful external storage/bin cupboards. Lewes station is a five-minute walk, with frequent services to Brighton and London, and the South Downs National Park is on the doorstep for regular countryside walks.
The property is leasehold with 109 years remaining, an annual service charge around £1,800 and a small ground rent of £50 per year. The apartment is one of three in the building, so the garden and upkeep are shared — buyers should review the service arrangements. Broadband speeds are average and the area records higher crime levels, which some buyers will want to consider.
Overall this is a large, characterful town-centre apartment for buyers seeking strong local amenities, excellent transport links and countryside access. It will particularly suit first-time buyers or downsizers who value period detail and a communal garden but who are comfortable with leasehold ownership and ongoing service costs.
