Charles Wycherley Independent Estate Agents are delighted to
announce the sale of this elegant and spacious double-fronted
Edwardian house privately set above and back from the street, which
has been superbly and painstakingly renovated by its current owners
at considerable expense. Large front to rear landings with
Edwardian-scale windows fill this house with natural light. The
second floor hallway has views to Lewes Castle and Firle Beacon,
one very large double bedroom and a second double with a new
en-suite shower room. The first floor has a further three double
bedrooms, the front two with attractive bay windows offering direct
views of the Castle and Baxter`s Field. The large family bathshower
room with craftsman-built panelling and cupboards includes a
roll-top bath and spacious shower. The ground floor entrance hall
includes its original 1910 leaded stained glass front door and
surround. It leads onto the drawing room with French doors to the
garden and the 27`2 x 12`6 through sitting roomdining room, both of
which have new log-burners and Chesneys marble fireplaces. A rear
cloakroom with access to the garden leads onto a w.c. and a
magnificent newly fitted wood and granite Neptune kitchen. The
generous town garden was designed by a local landscape gardener in
2022 and is set out to three sides of the house, offering a range
of shrubs and trees, a small pond and lighting, with many seating
areas. The rear garden offers a private haven to enjoy the summer
sunshine and rear access. All the original sash windows have their
Edwardian glass intact and have been completely refurbished, the
original wooden floors throughout are a particular feature, and a
new boiler was installed in 2021. The external brickwork was
re-pointed in lime mortar and the external woodwork was painted in
2023. The current owners have loved living in this peaceful,
light-filled and spacious period home, sympathetically restoring it
to its Edwardian splendour with major investment. The new owners
will find that all the hard work has been done!
