Property Description

Exquisite Grade II Listed (circa 1620), 1 bedroom, split level, period property with a wealth of charm, character and style situated in a sought after, prime central location in the heart of the historic County Town of Lewes.

A beautiful bespoke wooden staircase with glass balustrade rises from the drawing room to the first floor beneath which are bespoke cupboards. The bespoke fitted kitchen features a vaulted double glazed ceiling, quarry tiled floor, stone work-surfaces, butlers sink and has ample space for appliances.
