A long, skinny house has gone on the market for £330,000 in Sussex.

Looking at it from the outside, this two-bed property on South Street in Lewes, East Sussex, looks extremely unassuming.

However, when you take a peek inside, the house stretches fairly far back and, honestly, it’s giving Doctor Who’s Tardis. 

The Grade II-listed cottage features two bedrooms, one bathroom and two reception rooms and has loads of lovely original features like fireplaces and sash windows.

However, it is in need of some serious TLC and doesn’t actually feature a kitchen or bathroom, so it’s only suitable for a cash purchaser who is willing to completely modernise the property.

There’s a slightly longer walk to the loo, too.

That said, there is a newly-rebuilt single storey extension that could be used as a galley kitchen and shower room.

The fixer-upper property is located in Lewes, which is within the South Downs National Park in East Sussex. 

The town has a beautiful high street and a monthly farmer’s market as well as access to two big supermarkets – Tesco and Waitrose.

Lewes is also home to good schools including the likes of Sussex Downs College and Lewes Old Grammar School, making it the ideal location for families.

It would also be a great place for anyone hoping to commute to London or Brighton, with train links of just over an hour and under 20 minutes.

The property is being sold by Oakley Property, which manages properties all across Sussex.

Company Director David Beaken said: ‘We deal with property all over Sussex and wherever you go there are weird and wonderful properties. 

‘Dating back to the 16th century, as you would expect Lewes has its fair share of unique homes. 

‘South Street is one of the most popular roads, so this is the perfect opportunity for someone to snap up a little piece of the historic town (however little it might be).’
