********** THIS PROPERTY IS NOW SOLD SUBJECT TO CONTRACT **********
This Manhattan style apartment, one of four in a recently converted old chapel, (1999) built in 1899, really is unique in Penzance. It offers three floors of spacious accommodation culminating in a superb gallery with fantastic views across Mounts Bay taking in St Michaels Mount, local beaches and beyond.
Penzance is a fantastic town with many local historical towns and villages within easy reach. The improved A30 has made Penzance far more accessible and the train and bus stations are 2 mins walk away with Penzance being the final stop in the country on the main line to Paddington. Newlyn fishing village and Mousehole, (famous for its Christmas lights) are down the road, the beautiful St Ives only 7 miles north. The Isles of Scilly can be easily reached via helicopter or Scillonian ferry, both within a mile of the appt.
Penzance offers beautiful parks, beaches, a wide range of both interesting and practical shops, a library, great schools for all ages and of course the famous St Michaels Mount just a few miles away. A brand new sports centre opens mid august in addition to a great outdoor pool built into the harbour front. There are various museums, art galleries, numerous restaurants and even a sub-tropical garden. You can also enjoy long walks or cycle rides along the coast for as long as your lungs will let you.
Within short driving distance are the city of Truro, Newquay, The Lizard Point, Falmouth and also attractions such as Paradise Park, Creely Adventure Park and Flambards Theme Park. The town enjoys two supermarkets, a large B&Q, Currys and Halfords, however these are on the towns outskirts so as to not impede on the beauty of its character. Penzance really is a beautiful and resourceful town offering everything you would need to enjoy a stress free life.
The apartment itself is in a fantastic position with the town centre just minutes away and yet the immediate area is very quiet. The accommodation starts on the first floor of the building and consists of a bathroom, two good-sized bedrooms and a cupboard in the hallway, which is plumbed for a washing machine. After ascending stairs you reach a large open plan living area incorporating a lounge, kitchen and dining room. The original chapel beams run the length of the room under a vaulted ceiling, views of the bay and the mount can be seen from the kitchen windows while enjoying a meal at the kitchen table. A further flight of stairs takes you to the gallery that can be used as a great entertaining room or as further bedroom. Either way its a fantastic room and the highlight of the apartment with its glazed roof and views. Above is the attic that offers a large amount of storage space and is easily accessible.
A massive benefit of the property is the off-road secured parking, which in Penzance is worth its weight in gold.
Another huge attraction of the apartments is that they can be rented as holiday flats and in the height of the summer can fetch upwards of £700 a week. These figures can be verified on request.
