About this property

Once part of the former servant's quarters of Balneath Manor House, this enchanting Victorian cottage sits within a characterful row of nine homes, set back from the road and tucked behind mature greenery - it offers a wonderfully private setting that feels worlds away from everyday life. Inside, the cottage is brimming with period detail: stripped pine floors, working feature fireplaces, and an abundance of quirky architectural touches that make every corner feel special. The open-plan lounge/diner is instantly welcoming.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Lewes, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
