This two-double-bedroom Victorian townhouse sits in the desirable Pells area of Lewes, just 0.2 miles from the High Street and mainline station. The layout favours modern living with a generous 21ft kitchen/dining room opening to a west-facing courtyard, while a dual-aspect sitting room provides character and elevated street views. The second-floor bedroom enjoys distant South Downs outlooks.
The house is offered freehold and benefits from gas central heating, sash windows and solid brick construction that retains period character. Practical points include a modern bathroom with Jack-and-Jill access and gated rear access; neighbouring properties have a legal right of way across the rear courtyard. The courtyard is compact but sun-facing and private.
There is scope to reconfigure internally — the former shower room on the ground floor could be refurbished into a study or incorporated to enlarge the sitting room (subject to building regs and planning). Buyers should note the property has a D EPC, likely solid brick walls with no loft insulation (assumed), and a very small plot footprint typical of central Lewes homes.
This home will suit buyers wanting town-centre convenience and period character — ideal for professionals, a small family or an investor seeking a centrally located, rentable property with refurbishment upside. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the proportions and potential.
