This detached double fronted town house is understood to date from 1784 and has been recently extended by the current owners, and now offers flexible accommodation over three floors.
Features of note include a welcoming dining hall with a log burning stove and a cosy study.
The sitting room is light and bright and has an adjacent shower/cloakroom which provides the potential of a guest suite on the ground floor.
The floors throughout the property have been replaced with either solid or engineered wood and there is a sedum roof (green roof) over the sitting room.
The first floor provides a spacious landing, 2 double bedrooms and a well-appointed bathroom. The principal bedroom is on the second floor, and is approached through a useful dressing room/further study.
Accessed via the kitchen/breakfast room or the sitting room, the garden is terraced over 2 levels. There is a small paved seating area immediately outside the sitting room and steps lead up to the main garden with a further paved seating area and a kitchen garden.
There is a gate to one side of the house which provides pedestrian access from South Street to the rear garden.
79 South Street lies within the Conservation Area and the South Downs National Park, in a sought after position, a short distance from Lewes High Street. The mainline station is 0.7 mile from the property (London Victoria about 1 hour).
Lewes has an excellent range of individual shops and restaurants together with many cultural and recreational facilities.
