Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Charles Wycherley Independent Estate Agents are delighted to present this imposing semi-detached Edwardian house, built around 1910 in a most attractive location laid back from the road and with 2 garages and a long 150ft garden. The house has 2 double bedrooms on the second floor along with a separate cloakroom and excellent views to Lewes Castle to the front and over the rear garden behind. The first floor has the master bedroom with exposed wooden floorboards, bay window and bespoke fitted wardrobe cupboards, and a small double bedroom and a large bathroom with corner bath and separate shower room. The ground floor has a large entrance hall with coloured leadlight entrance door, a front sitting room with bay window and one of many attractive fireplaces, a dining room and an open kitchen/family area with utility room and downstairs cloakroom. There is a large 15' x 12' conservatory/living room to the rear. The front garden is of generous size and has 2 garages, and there is a superb 150ft long private rear garden. The property has many original features and gas fired central heating.
The Avenue, and particularly this property, is in a prime Lewes location. No.13 is close to Lewes town centre via The Paddock or the Offham Road and is thus under 10 minutes walk and closer than nearly all Wallands properties. The property is also opposite and elevated, overlooking The Paddock, giving a most attractive outlook to the public park, but also Lewes Castle and this historic town. Thus, this property is highly convenient in touch with the culture and history of the town core with period properties and attractions, independent shops, inns, cafes and restaurants, as well as 3 superstores, the superb Depot Cinema and Lewes Railway Station (London Victoria 65 mins, London Bridge 90 mins & Brighton 15 mins). The Pells area is close by for country and riverside walks and the South Downs a little further to the west via Gundreda Road.
Please note: This property is being sold by a Director of Charles Wycherley Estate Agents.
