St Peters Place, Lewes

Charles Wycherley Independent Estate Agents are delighted to present this most attractive end of terraced cottage on 3 floors to the open market. This is one of the prime Lewes locations, situated at the end of this quiet cul-de-sac off the High Street. The property has the most surprising views, being directly adjacent to the trees and country feel of The Paddock and Baxter's Field and an extended view to Lewes Castle with the town and South Downs beyond. The cottage is superbly modernised and has 3 reception spaces to the ground floor with distinctive high ceilings. There is a cosy sitting room with fireplace and front sash window. To the rear is a full-width dining/family room opening to the main east facing rear garden, a superb fitted kitchen and the side office/garden room addition. There is also a utility space and downstairs cloakroom. All rear rooms overlook the attractive walled courtyard and there is a side area of garden with outbuilding and an invaluable car parking space to the front of the property. The first floor has 2 bedrooms and a modern bathroom and there is a superb master bedroom to the second floor. The property has gas fired central heating and many original features.

St. Peter's Place is a most attractive cul-de-sac of renowned high ceiling properties, built for the Marquis of Abergavenny with feature escutcheons to the front elevations. The cul-de-sac is off St. Annes Hill, the most scenic west section of Lewes High Street. The property is thus within the heart of the historic core, close to the Norman Castle and many attractive period buildings. Lewes has a vast array of independent shops, inns, cafes and restaurants, with the Depot Cinema and mainline Railway Station just to the south of the High Street (London Victoria 65 mins, London Bridge 90 mins & Brighton 20 mins). St. Peters Place is just yards from Baxter's Field, an attractive recreation area, and there is access to riverside and South Down walks.
