Strutt & Parker says ..

A charming Grade II Listed cottage offering an opportunity to undertake a renovation project. Within moments of Lewes' eclectic High Street and mainline station.

Property Oracle says ..

This two-bedroom, one-bathroom terraced house in Lewes, East Sussex, presents a compelling investment opportunity, albeit one that requires a considerable amount of renovation. Situated on the desirable Southover High Street, the property benefits from a central location within easy reach of Lewes’s bustling high street, its mainline railway station offering convenient links to London and Brighton, and several highly-rated primary schools. The property itself, however, is dated. Images reveal a property in need of significant modernisation. The kitchen and bathroom are particularly outdated, and the interior finishes throughout the house are in need of updating. The existing carpets and wall colours give the property a somewhat tired look. While the photographs indicate some charm, significant financial investment will be needed to bring it into line with modern standards. The modest-sized rear garden provides a small area for outdoor living and is a typical size for properties located centrally in Lewes. Considering the location, the list price appears justifiable, but prospective buyers must factor in the substantial refurbishment costs before making a final decision. The overall property presents an excellent location, making it an attractive prospect once renovations are carried out.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
