Tucked in a peaceful Georgian mews just moments from Helston town centre, this Grade II listed three-bedroom townhouse blends historic character with practical living. High ceilings, sash windows and exposed stonework retain strong period charm while generous room proportions create flexible living over three floors. The top-floor rooftop garden is a standout: secluded, sunny and offering townscape views — an urban oasis for morning coffee or small gatherings.
The principal bedroom suite includes a dressing area and an en-suite with claw-foot bath and separate shower; a second en-suite serves the top-floor bedroom/office. A versatile ground floor layout provides distinct reception spaces and a kitchen opening to a dining room, ideal for family life or entertaining. The large double garage with internal access and allocated parking in front is a rare town-centre convenience.
Buyers should note material constraints: the property is Grade II listed and subject to a flying freehold, which can restrict alterations and complicate future works. The courtyard entrance is shared with a neighbouring property and maintenance costs are split 50/50; there is also a right of access across the neighbouring courtyard for emergency use. Broadband speeds are slow and the property is EPC-exempt due to listed status — factor potential retrofit limitations and ongoing upkeep of older fabric into any purchase plans.
This home will suit buyers seeking central, characterful living — families or professionals who prioritise location, period features and outdoor privacy over large gardens. With careful planning, it offers a rare combination of historic charm, practical garage space and a private rooftop garden in the heart of Helston.
