Description
Westminster House, a former bank built in 1899-1900, is on sale as a fully converted, five-storey, five-bedroom mansion house in the heart of Newhaven. With its original Bath and York stone exterior and Wren-like concrete floral wreathes, the property boasts a striking ground floor elevation and features a large gravelled and gated yard at the rear with an astro-turf garden and parking for six to seven cars. Inside, the property has been restored to its original heights, with a bathroom, shower-room, four WCs, and a basement vault and strong-room. The property has potential to be converted into an 8 to 10 bedroom HMO, and it features three entrances, with two front doors on High Street and Bridge Street. The property has been called the "landmark building of Newhaven" and "Chateau Newhaven" by the local planning committee, reflecting its historical importance and central location in the coastal town.
