Wealth of period & character features
Originally built in 1863 by the Nevill Estate, the property originally functioned as a shop before becoming a residential home. This striking residence seamlessly blends modern comforts with timeless charm and is an absolute must-see.
The ground floor opens into an entrance hall with bespoke storage, leading through to a bright and spacious living room boasting engineered oak flooring, high ceilings, and an impressive floor-to-ceiling bookshelf. Flooded with natural light, the large sash windows feature made-to-measure single-pane secondary glazing, ensuring the room is exceptionally well-insulated and whisper-quiet despite its central location. A fully functioning open fireplace set against Italian glass and a black limestone hearth highlights the room's blend of practicality and style. A sliding barn door allows you to transition this cozy sitting room into a sophisticated entertaining space that flows effortlessly into the dining room. Complete with a modern chandelier, soft wall lighting, a feature fireplace, and Crittall double doors opening onto a private courtyard, the dining room is sure to impress guests.
The country-chic kitchen, restored in 2019, is a dream for cooking enthusiasts. It features quartz worktops, walnut shelving, a butler sink, and a La Canche range cooker. The home's industrial theme continues here with stylish tiled splashbacks beautifully complemented by the Farrow & Ball 'Dinnerware' blue cabinetry.
Heading downstairs from the dining room reveals a truly versatile lower ground floor. Previously used as a self-contained annex, this space is currently configured as an additional snug and study, alongside an existing laundry room, WC, and-best of all-a private sauna.
The first floor houses the principal bedroom suite, a luxurious sanctuary complete with bespoke fitted wardrobes and a sliding barn door leading to an adjoining room currently used as a walk-in dressing room and study. Off the hallway, you will find a further guest bedroom (currently used as a home office) and an immaculately presented family bathroom. Paying homage to the home's heritage, it features a Bayswater suite, Victorian-style WC, and brass taps that enhance the serene atmosphere & charm found throughout the property.
Before heading to the top floor, an eye-catching spiral staircase sourced directly from the Parisian metro commands attention.
The top floor offers a larger-than-average bedroom with generous eaves storage and Velux windows that flood the room with light while framing stunning views over the South Downs and the castle. A well-equipped en-suite bathroom is neatly tucked away here. Crucially, there is exciting potential to create a dormer extension with a balcony, offering an even grander space to soak in the views (subject to planning permission - *STPP).
Location & Lifestyle Lewes is one of Sussex's most sought-after towns, renowned for its independent shops, gastro pubs, vibrant music scene, and the legendary annual Bonfire Night celebrations.
For open green spaces, Bash Street Field is a short stroll behind the house, while Pells Pool and the River Ouse are a mere half-mile walk away. Commuting is a breeze: London is just over an hour by train, Brighton is only 10 minutes away, and local bus routes are a stone's throw from your front door.
