The Old Racecourse, Lewes, East Sussex, BN7

DESCRIPTION
The Estate is set within the tranquil elevated grounds of the former Lewes Racecourse, an
iconic location with roots dating back to the 1700s. The final race was held in 1964 but the
area remains steeped in history and character. Today this elevated setting offers sweeping
countryside views within a wonderfully peaceful environment while remaining in easy reach of all the conveniences of town life. The location is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts with direct access to a network of scenic footpaths, bridleways and cycle routes leading onto the heart of the South Downs National Park. Whether you are a avid walker, cyclist or nature lover the surrounding landscape offers endless opportunities to explore.
Formed from the historic ‘bookies halls’ which were converted into stables after the racecourse closed.

The Totaliser Buiding now has consent for a mixture of F1(e) exhibition space, E(b) cafe use and a holiday cottage. Several exhibitions have been carried out within the building which is also operated as a cafe/bar providing refreshments
to local walkers, cyclists, riders and families. Stable doors have been retained catering
for equestian use to be resumed if desired. The commercial parts cover the footprint of 5
cottages with potential to increase the annual income and develop areas further (subject
to planning).

OUTSIDE
The property is approached via a long driveway winding across the South Downs to the gated entrance. To the front is a parking area and a large garden laid to lawn ideal for outside entertaining.
