PENRYN, Cornwall

Key Features

Summary

We are delighted to offer for sale as our clients sole agents, this SUBSTANTIAL FIVE BEDROOM, END OF TERRACE FAMILY HOME and a LARGE, ATTACHED, UNDEVELOPED BARN which is set in a conservation area in the heart of this ancient harbour town of Penryn near Falmouth.

Full Description

This large house has been a comfortable home to our clients for over 30 years now with them now downsizing and giving potential new owners the opportunity to tap into the vast potential that Number 32 offers with the house needing modernisation and the barn, a more substantial renovation project. This exciting pair of properties could suit a number of clients including someone with an extended family who would want the barn (subject to the necessary planning permission and building regulations) for an annexe, a client who works from home and needs space, maybe an artist/sculptor, carpenter, workshop space or just plenty of storage.

The multi-level accommodation in the house offers on the ground floor, a dining room, sitting room, steps down to a fitted kitchen. From the dining room steps lead down to a lower hall with access to the rear garden and bedroom five. A staircase leads to the first floor level which has four bedrooms and a family bathroom/wc combined. The barn can be accessed from the main house through a passageway and intercommunicating door (currently closed) or through the garden. A sunny sheltered courtyard sits immediately to the rear of the property and steps lead down to a large overgrown walled garden which is ripe for cultivation.





Penryn's bustling town centre offers a good range of amenities including a convenience store, post office, cafes and takeaways, galleries, a regular bus service which connects to the neighbouring town of Falmouth to Truro. At the top of the town you will find Penryn College and junior school and Falmouth University (Tremough Campus). For the sport minded buyer, Penryn Rugby Club and Football Club are close at hand and the Penryn River along Commercial Road with the boat yard at Islington Wharf is just a few minutes downhill walk.
