Rarely available first-floor office space with Connecticut River views in the heart of Essex Village. Located at 8 Novelty Lane, this bright & architecturally distinctive professional building sits in the center of the Historic Village, just steps from marinas, shops, restaurants, coffee shops, bank, and post office. This inviting office suite features vaulted ceilings and abundant windows, filling the space with natural light and creating an inspiring work environment. Two separate office rooms provide flexibility for a variety of professional uses. The larger office measures approximately 39' x 13', while the second office-featuring a vaulted ceiling, exposed wood beam, and private courtyard entrance-measures approximately 15' x 13'. A distinctive entry foyer with nautical photography and classic checkered tile flooring welcomes clients and visitors. Prominent signage is available at the building's main entrance, and there is off-street parking for tenants and guests. The building is home to a vibrant mix of professionals including architectural firms, authors, and yacht sales businesses, offering a dynamic yet peaceful setting on a quiet side street near three area yacht clubs. Nearby cultural attractions include The Griswold Inn, Connecticut River Museum & historic Steamboat Dock, placing your business at the center of one of Connecticut's most charming maritime communities. This award-winning building is a recipient of an AIA/CSA Design Award. Ideal office space!
