Summary - YEW TREE PLAT GERMAN STREET WINCHELSEA TN36 4EN
5 bed 1 bath Town House
Central village home with courtyard and far-reaching churchyard views.
Grade II listed Georgian mid-terrace with period features
Sunrise Cottage is a Grade II listed Georgian mid-terrace occupying a prominent position on German Street with views over St Thomas’s churchyard and toward the sea. The house provides generous family accommodation across three floors: four double bedrooms, one single bedroom, two reception rooms, two family bathrooms and a ground-floor WC, totalling about 1,492 sq ft.
The property is presented in largely unmodernised condition and offers a clear refurbishment opportunity for buyers who want to restore period detail while improving layout and services. Character features include sash and casement windows, cast-iron fireplaces and a mansard roof; the layout and size suit a growing family, multi-generation living or a holiday-let conversion subject to listed-building constraints.
Important practical points: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and can complicate structural or external changes. The interior requires updating throughout and some decorative and maintenance work is needed. Council Tax is above average (Band E). The home does benefit from a private paved courtyard garden, fast broadband and a quiet village location close to school, shop, pub and transport links.
This property will appeal to buyers seeking character, central village living and restoration potential rather than a turnkey home. For anyone planning significant works, early advice on listed-building consent is recommended so the property can be sympathetically improved while protecting its historic fabric.
