4 bedroom cottage

Charles Wycherley Independent Estate Agents are delighted to present this most attractive, wide-fronted property, originally two adjacent mid-19th century cottages. There is an open-plan L-shaped sitting/family room as well as a modern fitted wooden kitchen with stairs to a two-room cellar. The small two level garden at the rear is pretty and faces east onto Brack Mount (Scheduled Ancient Monument). On the first floor there is a bathroom and two bedrooms, one of which has a secondary study area. On the second floor there are two further bedrooms and a bathroom. 20 metres away there is a car parking space on the other side of Castle Banks.

Castle Banks is one of Lewes' premier locations running up the road of the northerly spine of the original Castle Banks, leading to the Castle Tilting Green (now used as a Bowling Green) and the Norman Castle itself. Lewes is full of history with a large number of attractive and spectacular period buildings, most with a story to tell, as well as a vast array of independent shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants and 3 superstores. Lewes Railway Station (London Victoria 65 mins & London Bridge 80 mins) is an approximate 10 minute walk, as is the neighbouring Depot Cinema.
