Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Our comfortable house, built in 2010, is right in the centre of Lewes, the county town of East Sussex. Built over three floors, totalling 150m.sq. this is a very light and airy house with fantastic views from many of the rooms. The top floor has a very well equipped kitchen, with dining area, settee and small terrace. This is where we spend most of our time, enjoying panoramas over the roofscapes of this medieval town, the Downs (chalk hill range) and the valley towards the sea. We have fast wifi throughout the house with a Sonos music system in three rooms. There is parking under the house. The station is 5 minutes walk, from where trains run to London (65 min.) and Brighton 15 min.). Lewes has a thriving range of small shops, a new cinema and lots of music events. There are over 10 places to eat within 100 m. of the house.
