Features and description
Charles Wycherley Independent Estate Agents are delighted to be appointed as Agents for this charming cottage in a tranquil setting. Eastport Lane is in an idyllic position immediately opposite the Grange Gardens, yet just a few minutes walk to the Railway Station and the High Street and shopping facilities just beyond. This three-storey Victorian cottage is superbly presented with a long and attractive south facing garden to the rear. There are two reception rooms and a fully fitted kitchen to the rear addition, beautifully overlooking the garden. There are two double bedrooms, one on each floor and both overlooking the gardens, together with a modern bathroom. The property has gas central heating and offers vacant possession for an easy move.
Eastport Lane directly borders and overlooks the stunning Grange Gardens and is in the ‘old town' Southover area of Lewes, just to the south of the High Street. Lewes Railway Station is just 100 yards (London Victoria 65 mins & London Bridge 80 mins) and yet is also yards from walks over fields and open countryside. Lewes' history is right on the doorstep with a vast array of period buildings, the Southover Grange Manor itself, cobbled Keere Street, Anne of Cleves House, the Priory Monastery ruins and the Norman Castle being just a few of its attractions. The Depot Cinema is opposite the Railway Station and there are numerous cafes, restaurants and bars to the High Street and surrounding streets, creating a superb atmosphere.
