Lewes voted one of the best places to live

What’s not to like?

In the recent Sunday Times ‘Best Place to Live in Britain’ survey, Lewes was voted as one of the best locations in the South East. The current level of demand reported by local agents in the area for the recently released Clayhills development seems to bear this out.

Those who already live there will no doubt agree with the Sunday Times survey. For the uninitiated, Lewes is a beautiful town at the foot of the South Downs and has been a bastion of the alternative crowd since the 18th Century, when political activist Thomas Paine started banging the drum of American independence. Today’s rallying cries are more likely to concern recycling than revolution. The town is internationally famous for the annual bonfire celebrations on November 5 as well as being home to the highly regarded Harvey’s Brewery.

Lewes has something for all ages with a good selection of schools, a wide range of independent and high street retail outlets, numerous restaurants and pubs and a thriving cultural and music scene. Nestled amongst the hills of the South Downs, the countryside is literally on your doorstep. The town has good transport links with both road and rail providing easy access to London, Gatwick and the surrounding area.

Clayhills, a new development of apartments and family houses, is located within a short walk of the town centre and mainline station. The location is ideal to take advantage of the many benefits of living in Lewes.

Built by Blue Sonic, a local boutique developer, the specification has been carefully selected to create aspirational homes which offer a sustainable lifestyle. Each home comes with private parking and private outside space; the kitchens are sleek and practical with a range of integrated appliances; and the stunning bath and shower rooms are complemented with stylish floor and wall tiles. Prices range from £190,000 to £425,000.
