The property has been extensively and very tastefully refurbished in recent years with features such as a magnificent vaulted mezzanine gallery, oak flooring and underfloor heating. Currently arranged for commercial use as a luxury coffee house with a gallery and seating area on the first floor, there is potential to convert the existing building into a three bedroom home, plans for which can be made available upon request. This is a very rare opportunity which will only be fully appreciated upon viewing.
The property is situated on the northern edge of Alfriston's village green, known as 'The Tye' which forms the scenic surroundings of St Andrews parish church, also known as 'The Cathedral of the South Downs'. Alfriston is nestled at the heart of the breathtakingly beautiful Cuckmere Valley, within the South Downs National Park and is renowned for its fine dining venues, tea rooms and ancient inns. The surrounding countryside provides opportunity for various recreational pursuits and there are facilities in the village including a primary school and doctors' surgery. The Victorian coastal town of Eastbourne is about 9 miles distant, as is the historic county town of Lewes, both of which provide excellent schools. There are mainline rail services from nearby Berwick Station and channel ferries operate from Newhaven. There is world class opera at Glyndebourne.
