Pear Tree Cottage is a distinctive three-bedroom character home in the heart of Hailsham, offering flexible accommodation for family or multi-generational living. The property combines original charm with later extensions, creating multiple reception rooms and a ground-floor bedroom with ensuite — useful for guests or accessibility needs.
The modern kitchen and well-proportioned upstairs bedrooms give everyday comfort, while the walled garden and gated driveway with large garage provide private outdoor space and secure parking. The plot is a decent size for a town-centre location and the layout offers scope to reconfigure or create a self-contained annex if required.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the area records very high crime levels and council tax is above average. The property has undergone piecemeal extensions and, although habitable, offers scope for further modernisation and potential consolidation of the layout to suit contemporary living.
Situated close to schools, shops and public transport, this home will suit a family seeking central convenience and character with room to personalise and improve. For multi-generational households it provides immediate practical benefits and longer-term potential to adapt the space.
