Property DESCRIPTIONTucked away at the foot of the South Downs on the edge of Polegate, this stylish three-bedroom terraced house is part of an exclusive development of former Victorian stables. Converted by Dove Tail Homes to a high standard in 2002, Stud Farm Stables offers a rare blend of character, quality and tranquillity - and this particular property enjoys possibly the best position on the site, with sweeping, uninterrupted views across the National Park to the South Downs beyond.

Inside, the home is thoughtfully finished and full of modern comforts. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating and features a beautifully refitted kitchen with integrated Neff appliances and polished stone worktops. There's also a ground-floor shower room and bedroom while upstairs includes a generous main bedroom with en-suite, alongside a further bedroom and a family bathroom.

Outside, there are gardens to both the front and rear - the latter perfectly placed to soak in the wide-reaching views of the Downs.

The home also comes with a garage located in a block to the rear, along with a dedicated parking space. Residents enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the central courtyard, around which the ten cottages are arranged.

Located just half a mile from Polegate High Street and the mainline train station, and around 4.5 miles from Eastbourne, this is an ideal setting for those seeking countryside charm without losing easy access to town and coast.
