Summary - 20 Regent Terrace TR18 4DW
1 bed 1 bath Guest House
Established coastal trading opportunity with owners' accommodation and substantial parking.
Grade II listed guest house with strong period character
A rare Grade II listed guest house on Regent Terrace, positioned close to Penzance seafront and promenade. The building is described as extremely large (about 3,547 sq ft) with a mix of guest and owners' accommodation, garden and off-street parking for several vehicles—offering a live/work lifestyle in a busy coastal location. The listing notes turnover in excess of £130,000 and reported good net profitability, making this appealing to buyers seeking an established trading opportunity.
The property’s period granite construction, Georgian façade and west-facing garden create strong kerb appeal and sea-facing communal rooms. The layout reportedly includes multiple en-suite guest rooms, a guest lounge and dining room, plus owners’ accommodation; the car park is described as accommodating up to nine vehicles—valuable for trading and holiday lets.
Buyers must weigh material constraints: the building is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance and compliance. Flooding risk is high, broadband speeds are very slow, and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated—meaning energy upgrades and flood resilience works may be needed. Heating is electric-boiler and radiators; glazing is double but install date is unknown.
This suits an investor or lifestyle buyer experienced with listed buildings and coastal trading—someone prepared to manage conservation obligations and flood‑risk mitigation while benefiting from a well-located, income-producing asset with strong tourism appeal.
