The property is located in High Hurst Close, Newick, a village in Lewes, East Sussex. Newick benefits from an ‘Outstanding’ rated primary school, Newick Church of England Primary School, located only 0.42km away. This is a significant positive for families. The proximity to other well-regarded schools, such as Fletching Church of England Primary School (rated ‘Good’), further enhances its family-friendly appeal. Train stations at Cooksbridge, Uckfield, and Plumpton are within a reasonable commuting distance, although specific travel times would need to be verified.

Based on the photographs, the property appears to be in good condition. There is evidence of recent modernisation, particularly in the kitchen, which has been extended and updated to a high standard. Other areas of the house also appear well-maintained and presented. While some rooms retain features suggesting a degree of age, there is no visible evidence of significant disrepair or the need for extensive renovation.

The property includes a sizeable garden, offering ample outdoor space. The garden is well-established with mature planting and features several outbuildings, including sheds and a gazebo. The presence of a hot tub further suggests a focus on outdoor living.

The list price of £985,000 is higher than the average price for the area (£734,999). However, considering the property’s size (1,571.53 sqft) and the apparent quality of its condition and recent improvements, the price might be considered reasonable, particularly in comparison to nearby similar properties. The average price per sqft in the area is £511.00. While precise sqft data for comparable properties is limited, the higher list price is partially justified by the property’s superior condition and the inclusion of a substantial garden. Further analysis comparing the price per sqft of this property with the limited data available for directly comparable properties would be needed to form a more definitive conclusion on value.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
