Characterful two‑bed townhouse in central Rye, ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers..
Victorian terraced townhouse in Rye Conservation Area
A compact Victorian terraced townhouse set in Rye’s Conservation Area, blending period character with practical modern upgrades. The house offers a well-proportioned living room, open-plan kitchen/dining with roof lantern, two bedrooms and a walk-in shower room — arranged over two floors and totalling about 602 sq ft. Double glazing and an integrated dishwasher are in place; heating is electric and the EPC is D.
Outside is an enclosed paved courtyard garden adjoining a section of the Grade I listed medieval Town Wall, plus a useful utility store with plumbing. The location is exceptionally convenient for Rye’s shops, festivals and local rail links to Ashford International and London St Pancras, while remaining quiet in a small-town setting. Ultrafast broadband is available and mobile reception is excellent.
Important considerations: the property sits within a Conservation Area and adjoins listed fabric, so planning and listed-building restrictions will affect alterations and maintenance. The plot and garden are very small, living space is compact, and the house uses electric heating. Crime levels in the area are above average — factor this into security and insurance decisions.
This home suits buyers seeking a characterful, low-maintenance base in central Rye — ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers who value location and charm over large outdoor space. For anyone planning significant change, expect extra cost and consenting requirements due to the listed setting.
