Description
Commanding southerly views toward the Downs this exceptionally fine house was probably designed by one of Eastbourne’s most renowned architects Peter Dulvey Stonham and the accommodation features fine Tudor style detail with a generous use of oak joinery throughout much of the accommodation. The principal rooms command a fine southerly aspect over the lovely gardens toward the Downs. An inspection will convey the high merit and potential of this delightful home. We are advised that there is no onward chain.
Tudor Cottage is enviably situated on the southerly side of Summerdown Road close to the Royal Eastbourne Golf Course with scenic downland just beyond. The facilities of the town centre are easily accessible and as are the amenities of the Old Town which include the fine parish church of St Marys and Waitrose supermarket. In the town centre there are popular theatres and one of the finest Victorian seafronts on the south coast and there are mainline rail services to London Victoria and to Gatwick. In addition to golf, sporting facilities in Eastbourne area include sailing, tennis and the wonderful recreational opportunity of the nearby South Downs National Park. There is world class opera at nearby Glyndebourne and channel ferries are from Newhaven.
