Positioned at the base of Roundhill Conservation Area and tucked away from the busy Lewes Road, this spacious one-bedroom flat sits within a popular terrace of Victorian homes. The entire building may need a spot of freshening up, even so this is a hugely exciting prospect for those looking to get a step on the ladder, or for developers looking to breathe new life into a period home while adding plenty of value to the place. Positioned on the lower ground floor, this flat has its own street entrance to the side of the building, down a few stone steps. There is a deep storage cupboard down here, ideal for bikes, should you be preferring to travel without affecting your carbon footprint. Stepping inside, it is clear the place needs complete refurbishment. While the kitchen and bathroom are in working order, they would benefit from renewal. The rooms are fantastic sizes, however, offering versatile spaces with the bedroom and living room interchangeable depending on which one you would prefer to have direct garden access. To the rear, the room leading to the garden would be ideal as a sitting room as it has space for dining which could spill outside to the garden during summer. An original period fireplace adds character to the room while a traditional built-in wardrobe offers additional storage. To the front of the building, the bedroom is peaceful with another set of French doors leading to the light well at the front of the building, ensuring it is completely private from passers-by while natural light can filter in. There is room for a king size bed on wood floors which can be sanded and varnished to bring them back to their original glory. Outside, the garden stretches back with the original flint wall to one side and lush greenery to the other adding to the privacy. It faces east but is open to the south, so it is bathed in sunlight throughout the day which is ideal for those who enjoy growing plants and vegetables. The potential is there to build a garden office out here or extend the living room further which would free up space in the original kitchen to create a second bedroom – all worth considering subject to planning consents and building permissions.
