This three-storey Victorian terraced cottage offers practical family living in peaceful South Chailey, a short drive from Lewes. The house has been extensively refurbished in recent years, creating bright, open-plan ground-floor living with a modern kitchen and a sitting room centred on a fireplace. The top-floor master bedroom benefits from an ensuite, while two further bedrooms and a ground-floor bathroom give flexible sleeping and home-working options.
Outside, the rear garden is neat and landscaped with a paved patio, lawn and stocked borders; a gated rear entrance and a garage at the end of the garden add useful storage and parking. The property backs onto local green spaces, with a bluebell trail, sports ground and countryside walks within easy reach—appealing for families who value outdoor access.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the house is solid-brick and likely lacks cavity insulation, the double glazing was installed before 2002, and heating is via an oil-fired boiler. These factors may mean future energy improvements or upgrades are desirable. The plot is very small and the home sits within a row of similar period houses, so outdoor space and privacy are modest.
Overall this freehold cottage will suit a family or someone seeking a characterful village home close to Lewes and mainline rail links, who is prepared to manage or invest in energy-efficiency improvements. Low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband add everyday convenience in this affluent rural neighbourhood.
