A LUXURIOUS Georgian townhouse with a self-contained flat has gone on sale for £2.5 million.
Sussex House in Lewes High Street has four bedrooms – plus another in the flat – its own cinema room and a large walled garden.
The Grade II-listed property is believed to date from the early 18th century and was converted into an office space in the 1950s but has been restored as a stunning home with modern touches by the current owners.
The house is full of period features, including a Georgian fireplace and turned staircase in its grand reception hall, high ceilings and an original mantelpiece in the drawing room.
The dining room has a full height double-glazed window in one corner, which frames a view of the garden.
The dining room opens into the kitchen and breakfast room, with solid oak cabinetry, a bespoke stainless steel island and impressive curved door leading to the garden.
Upstairs, the main bedroom is also at the rear of the property, so you can look out into the garden through an elegant bay window.
A vintage French shower sits in the centre of the master bedroom’s luxurious en suite, and all the property’s four bathrooms have been individually designed.
To the rear of the second floor a self-contained flat within the property includes a kitchen and dining room, bathroom and a room which could be either a bedroom or living space.
Outside a traditional Sussex flint wall surrounds a generous lawn and terrace, providing plenty of space to relax outdoors.
On the lower ground floor you can curl up in a cosy yet spacious cinema room, which provides a contrast to the formal reception rooms on the ground floor.
Rohan Vines, of estate agents Savills Haywards Heath, said: “Sussex House is a beautiful Georgian townhouse on Lewes High Street.
“The house has been comprehensively renovated and restored to its original grandeur, creating a wonderful home with classic period features and generous proportions.”
