THE PROPERTY

A characterful period building thoughtfully converted by a respected local developer in 2022 into four contemporary apartments, finished to a high standard and designed for modern coastal living. This ground floor apartment enjoys pleasant outlooks towards the harbour village and Penryn River, combining charm, convenience and lifestyle appeal. The stylish open-plan living space incorporates a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, complemented by a recently added breakfast bar seating 4–6 people, creating an ideal sociable dining area or work-from-home space. A defined sitting area is positioned to make the most of the waterside outlook, while the bright double bedroom is served by a modern walk-in shower room finished in a contemporary style. The apartment would suit first-time buyers, investors, single occupants or those seeking a low-maintenance waterside home within easy reach of local amenities and transport links. Previously a successful rental investment and now enjoyed as a full-time residence, the owner is looking to remain within Penryn and secure an alternative nearby home but will be sad to leave this apartment. For boating enthusiasts, the current owner rents a mooring locally and enjoys exploring the Penryn River and Carrick Roads during suitable tidal conditions. Residential parking is available nearby at Quay Hill and Exchequer Quay Council Car Park, where free parking is currently available between 4pm and 9am daily (subject to Cornwall Council policy - https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/transport-parking-and-streets/parking/cornwall-council-car-parks/exchequer-quay-commercial-road-penryn-tr10-8ls/).

THE LOCATION

The apartment enjoys a convenient position within easy reach of Penryn town centre and its growing selection of independent amenities, including a farm shop, yoga café, wine tasting evenings at The Neighbourhood, The Famous Barrel pub, fishmonger and Jubilee Wharf, home to a variety of creative and independent businesses. Opposite, the attractive Harbour Village redevelopment has played a key role in the regeneration of Penryn’s historic waterfront, blending character homes with restored listed buildings and a vibrant harbourside atmosphere. Surrounded by beautiful countryside and nearby woodland walks, the location also offers easy access to the Penryn River and Cornwall’s stunning south coast beaches. One of Cornwall’s oldest and most historic towns, Penryn combines rich heritage with an increasingly vibrant and creative community, enhanced by the presence of Falmouth and Exeter University. The town benefits from a range of sports clubs, schools and excellent transport connections, including a regular bus service and railway station linking Falmouth, Truro and the mainline service to London Paddington. Falmouth, approximately two miles away, offers a wider selection of shopping, restaurants, beaches, leisure facilities and university campuses.
