Outside:
The garden plot is a true delight. To the front there is a tarmac driveway which provides off-road parking for two vehicles with lawned area to the side, all enclosed by mature planting with a path leading to the Front Door and a side access gate giving access to the elevated sun terrace and rear garden.

The rear garden is ideal for family purposes with a level, broad expanse of lawn, that is ideal for a growing family and many recreational purposes.

Beyond this, hidden by mature bushes is a further area of garden with an established horticultural garden that is well drained with considerable space for a garden pavilion in order to take advantage of the breath taking views and aspect. This part of the garden backs onto the South Downs National Park and countryside that is designated as being of outstanding natural beauty.

Location:
Houndean Rise is located off the Brighton Road to the west of the town centre. The County town of Lewes has long been known for its spirit of independence and the inhabitants are proud of its significant history stretching back to Saxon times. Lewes is a great place to shop with so many independent, antique and quirky shops. It is also the perfect place to stop for a bite to eat or a drink in one of the eclectic number of pubs.

There is a mainline railway station (London/Victoria just over the hour) found at the bottom of Station Street, which in turn leads off the High Street. There are three supermarkets, the acclaimed independent Depot cinema, leisure centre, tertiary college, along with well attended primary and senior schools. The famous Glyndebourne Opera House is situated on the edge of Ringmer just 3 miles distant.
