Archer & Partners are delighted to present this exceptional Grade II listed top floor flat, nestled within the historic Kempthorne House, a landmark building with a rich heritage in Newhaven.

There is also plenty of room for a dining table, making it a great space for entertaining.

Both double bedrooms are generously proportioned, with the main bedroom benefiting from an en suite shower room, WC, hand basin, heated towel rail, and abathroom cabinet. The second bedroom is equally spacious and features loft access via a pull down wooden ladder, providing additional storage. The family bathroom is well appointed with a bath and overhead shower, WC, modern hand basin, and heated towel rail. The entrance hall is particularly versatile and large enough to be utilised as a home office or study area, enhanced by a remote controlled Velux window.

Externally, the property benefits from an allocated parking space, a valuable addition in this sought after development.
