Full Description: <br /><br />A charming 3 bedroom property with much character located in an exceptional rural position on the South Downs as part of Lewes former racecourse with excellent access to bridleways yet just a short distance from Lewes high street and mainline station.<br /><br />Description<br />The Estate is set within the tranquil elevated grounds of the former Lewes Racecourse, an<br />iconic location with roots dating back to the 1700s. The final race was held in 1964 but the<br />area remains steeped in history and character. Today this elevated setting offers sweeping<br />countryside views within a wonderfully peaceful environment while remaining in easy reach of all the conveniences of town life. The location is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts with direct access to a network of scenic footpaths, bridleways and cycle routes leading onto the heart of the South Downs National Park. Whether you are a avid walker, cyclist or nature lover the surrounding landscape offers endless opportunities to explore.<br />This charming property was converted approximately 2 years ago with much attention<br />to retaining character and individuality with exposed pipework, rubber flooring, cork tiling<br />and some exposed beams and brickwork. There is light and flexible accommodation arranged over two floors with a living room opening to study area, kitchen/dining room and family bathroom all on the ground floor and 3 bedrooms on the first floor.<br /><br />Outside<br />The property is approached via a long driveway winding across the South Downs to the gated entrance. To the front is a parking area and courtyard garden overlooking the spectacular views. The property does have potential to extended further if required subject to the relevant planning consents being granted.
