West Ascent

This stunning Grade II listed, three storey town house is a stone's throw from the beach and enjoys sea views from all floors. It is in a favoured location within easy walking distance of St Leonards seafront and promenade. West Ascent is the perfect base for family holidays or couples' getaways, offering 4 double bedrooms and 2 modern bathrooms over the top two floors. On the ground floor you will find a spacious and comfortable drawing room with sea views through the large picture window and an adjoining dining room overlooking the courtyard garden.  In the basement there is a large and bright, fully equipped kitchen with a kitchen table where everyone can sit and chat and catch up on the day's activities.  There is also a cinema room with a projector and screen and a shower/utility room.  

This James Burton designed house, which was a Regency experiment to create 'Bloomsbury by the sea', boasts many original features and has a grand bay window in the drawing room and a wonderfully preserved pencil sketch by the novelist Robert Tressell, who wrote The Ragged-Trousered Philanthropist. The property is close to the trendy hub of Norman Road with artisan shops, local eateries and galleries and within a hundred yards of St Leonards Gardens with its landscaped lawns and feature ponds.  Warrior Square mainline railway station is also within a convenient distance if you don't want to bring your car.  This spacious and stylish property will make the perfect base to explore the local area along the Sussex coast and into the countryside and beyond.  Shop: 0.5 yards    Pub: 0.5 yards   Coast: 0 yards

We love this property for its size and location, making it your perfect choice for a holiday by the sea!
