Steeped in local history, 2 Bay Terrace, together with the adjoining 1 Bay Terrace, is considered a cornerstone building within the village. The site originally formed part of a 17th-century coal warehouse, recorded on maps as early as 1796, before later being converted in 1917 into the village's well-known "Corner Shop," serving both residents and visitors for many decades. The property remains one of Pevensey Bay's most recognisable and cherished buildings.
The property now offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over multiple levels, combining period charm with modern-day living. The home retains a wealth of character features, including exposed beams and traditional latch doors, some believed to date back to the 1700s, all thoughtfully complemented by contemporary décor and fittings throughout.
The accommodation comprises a welcoming sitting room and dining area, a separate snug with feature fireplace, a modern fitted kitchen, three double bedrooms, a ground floor bathroom, separate utility room/cloakroom and useful basement storage space.
This is a opportunity to acquire a property of such historical significance and character in a prime coastal location, and viewings are strongly recommended.
