Summary - 26 RICHMOND STREET PENZANCE TR18 2PP
2 bed 2 bath Terraced
Fully refurbished two-bedroom terrace with roof terrace, sold chain-free near Penzance town centre.
Recently fully renovated: new electrics, plumbing, kitchen, bathroom, damp proofing
A recently renovated two-bedroom terraced house positioned on a quiet no-through road, just a short walk from Penzance town centre. The vendor has completed a full modernisation in the last five years, including new electrics, plumbing, kitchen, bathroom and damp proofing — meaning the home is ready to occupy immediately. The ground floor offers an open-plan lounge and dining area, a contemporary kitchen and a separate utility with WC. Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom. A small courtyard provides low-maintenance outdoor space and a roof terrace above the utility room creates a sunny spot for relaxation.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, on-street parking and low council tax. Connectivity is strong with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and local amenities are close by: shop, post office, hospital and bus routes are all within easy walking distance. The property is offered chain free, which will suit buyers seeking a quicker move.
Buyers should note some material drawbacks: main heating currently relies on room heaters and house coal rather than a modern central heating system, and the stone walls are assumed to have no insulation. The area records high crime and very high deprivation indices, which may affect resale or rental appeal. Despite the recent refurbishment and new services, further work could be needed to upgrade heating and wall insulation for year-round comfort and efficiency.
Overall, this mid-terrace Victorian property will appeal to first-time buyers or buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in, characterful home close to town amenities, provided they accept the neighbourhood challenges and potential future costs to improve heating and insulation.
