4 bed end terrace house for sale

Archery Road, St. Leonards-On-Sea TN38

Set within the private Archery Villas enclave in the heart of St Leonards-on-Sea, this distinguished Grade ii-listed Regency townhouse forms part of a handsome terrace designed by Decimus Burton in the early 19th century. Originally conceived as a collection of elegant seaside villas, the houses are rumoured to have hosted friends of the Royal Family and remain among the area’s most architecturally significant addresses. A short walk from the seafront and the independent shops, galleries and cafés of St Leonards, the house extends across three light-filled storeys, where original architectural features have been sensitively restored alongside thoughtful modern additions.

Behind its handsome stuccoed façade, the interiors are defined by generous proportions, tall sash windows and a quietly sophisticated palette. Period detailing has been carefully retained, lending warmth and character throughout.

The ground floor is arranged as a versatile, dual-aspect living and dining space centred around a bespoke kitchen with a large central island and breakfast bar, engineered oak and underfloor heating flows throughout. Designed for both entertaining and everyday family life, the room opens directly onto a south-facing garden where the flagstone terrace provides an idyllic setting for outdoor dining, followed by a stretch of artificial lawn and a further composite decked seating area with a pergola drenched in honeysuckle and wisteria, enclosed by mature planting. The formal living room occupies the first floor, where a triple aspect draws in shifting coastal light throughout the day, double doors connect to a secondary reception room, equally suited as an additional bedroom, studio or study. Also on this floor is a luxury family bathroom finished with burlington fittings, alongside a further bedroom with a ladder leading up to a mezzanine sleeping platform.

The first floor can be accessed via a glass encased staircase rising from the kitchen and dining space and a secondary staircase in the entrance hall. Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys far-reaching sea views and includes a dressing area and en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms complete the upper floor, one with built-in wardrobes and its own en-suite bathroom.

As part of an extensive restoration project, the house has been comprehensively renovated throughout, including new electrics and plumbing, and benefits from approximately five years remaining on the NHBC warranty. Internal bespoke shutters have been fitted across the front elevation, while the house also enjoys the rare advantage of two allocated parking spaces.

Rich in architectural significance and quietly removed from the bustle below, this is an unusually versatile coastal home in one of St Leonards’ most sought-after addresses.
