3 bed terraced house for sale

Manor Close, Ringmer, Lewes BN8

AP Estate Agents are proud to present this excellent family home, set within the ever‐popular village of Ringmer. Positioned on the outskirts of the development, it enjoys easy access to the village centre while being moments from the glorious countryside that frames both sides of the area. The property is attractively half tile‐hung, with the front elevation finished in crisp white, giving it strong kerb appeal. The garden wraps around three sides of the home, complemented by high, mature hedging that provides an excellent level of privacy. There is also private off‐road parking for a couple of vehicles, and a single garage offering valuable additional storage.
Inside the property


The entrance to the property is positioned to the side of the house, and—much like several neighbouring homes—there is potential for a porch addition, subject to the usual permissions. Once inside, stairs rise to the first floor, while the ground floor opens into a generous living space. The living room is an excellent size, with a large front-facing window that floods the room with natural light. A log burner set within the fireplace creates a superb focal point, complemented by a stone‐tiled hearth and a thick wooden beam above. The room wraps neatly around the staircase, providing an additional area beneath that enhances the versatility of the space. Moving through to the kitchen, the sense of space immediately increases as it opens out into a well‐proportioned, country‐style room. Finished in classic cream cabinetry, it contrasts beautifully with the striking tiled floor that continues into the utility room. There is an impressive array of storage options, including cupboards, drawers and a larder unit, along with a smart ceramic one‐and‐a‐half bowl sink. Appliances include an integrated dishwasher, integrated oven and grill, a five‐ring gas hob with a sleek black glass splashback and extractor above. Metro‐style tiling completes the look, and the butcher‐block worktops provide both warmth and practicality. This space flows naturally into the extended part of the home, where a dedicated dining area features double doors opening onto the rear garden—ideal for entertaining family and friends. The utility room is a superb addition for a busy household, offering further worktop space, plumbing for a washing machine and dryer, and ample room for coats, shoes and additional appliances such as a freestanding fridge‐freezer. A back door provides convenient access to the rear garden.
Upstairs


Stairs rise to the first‐floor landing, which splits in two directions. At the front of the property is Bedroom Two, a comfortable double with views over the front of the home. It features laminate flooring and a built‐in cupboard that works well as wardrobe space. Bedroom Three also overlooks the front and is currently arranged as a dressing room/walk‐in wardrobe, though it offers space for a single bed if preferred. Positioned at the rear is Bedroom One, the largest of the three. It includes a built‐in wardrobe with both hanging and shelving, along with ample room for additional freestanding bedroom furniture. The family bathroom is fully tiled in all splashback areas and fitted with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower above, a wash basin with storage beneath, and a low‐level WC. While perfectly functional, some buyers may wish to modernise to suit their own tastes. Loft access is located on the landing, and we are informed that the loft is partially boarded, providing useful additional storage.
Outside


The garden wraps around the property on three sides, creating a wonderfully versatile outdoor space. The rear section, accessed from both the utility room and dining area, is brick‐paved with a part‐wall, part‐fenced boundary. A pergola with additional screening provides a private spot to enjoy an evening drink, while a dedicated vegetable‐growing area sits neatly to one side—a feature that continues to be highly sought after by many buyers. The rear garden is securely gated to the side, where a path leads back towards the front door and the remainder of the plot. Here you will find a large timber shed and a paved pathway that guides you to the lawned area. This section is framed by mature conifer hedging grown to head height, offering an excellent degree of privacy. Another pergola, attractively covered in foliage, creates a charming seating area ideal for barbecues and outdoor entertaining. Further planting, shrubs and seasonal flowers add colour and interest, forming a garden that has clearly been well enjoyed by the current owners. A driveway provides off‐road parking for a couple of vehicles, accessed directly from the garden. Although there are two garages positioned next to the driveway, these belong to neighbouring properties; however, the space in front of them forms part of this home’s title and can be fully explained during a viewing. The garage for this property is located in a nearby block, just a short distance away and easily seen when visiting.
