As a detached historical property, it stands as a testament to Newhaven's industrial soul, offering a scale and character rarely found in contemporary builds.
The home's history is immediate the moment you cross the threshold.
The expansive primary bedroom serves as a private sanctuary, featuring a modern en-suite bathroom-a thoughtful contemporary upgrade that respects the home's traditional footprint.
The house is situated just a short walk from Newhaven town centre, placing local amenities, independent cafes, and the marina right on your doorstep.
