Full Description

The property is set within a conservation area in the heart of this ancient harbour town of Penryn, near Falmouth.

Having been referred to as the largest property in West Street, the property is a substantial three storey semi-detached property which is accessed from West Street and Truro Lane behind where there is also parking for two vehicles. The property boasts much history and charm and has been a multi-use property with a history of being a traditional bakers and more recently an accountants office that would appeal to many for mixed use or a multi-generational home/student let due to its size and flexibility. The office area is currently an A1/A2 retail and financial professional services area however the vendors are currently in the process of applying for change of use to further residential accommodation.

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 or Truro. At the top of the town you will find Penryn College and Junior School plus Falmouth University (Tremough Campus). For sport, Penryn Rugby Club and Football Club are close at hand and Penryn River along with Commercial Road with its boatyard at Islington Wharf is just a few minutes downhill walk.

An internal viewing of this property is strongly recommended to fully appreciate its size and flexibility.
