Characterful two-level flat minutes from promenade and gardens.
Two-bedroom second-floor flat over three compact levels
Set over three compact levels, this two-bedroom second-floor flat offers a quirky loft-style layout close to Morrab Gardens and Penzance promenade. With two distinct living areas (‘Little Loft’ and ‘Top Loft’), the apartment feels more like a split maisonette and suits a first-time buyer or coastal bolthole purchaser seeking character and location.
The property retains period features such as sash windows, high ceilings to lower rooms and a granite terraced façade, and benefits from mains gas central heating and fast broadband. The top living room has distant rooftop views to Newlyn and generous floor space for its setting, while skylights provide rooflight illumination throughout the upper levels.
Buyers should note practical limitations: the flat is leasehold with a small £50 annual ground rent and a 30% liability for communal repairs when required. The building’s solid granite walls are assumed uninsulated, head heights are restricted in parts of the loft conversions, and the EPC rating is E. On-street parking only and the multi-level layout involves many stairs, which may affect accessibility.
Overall the flat offers strong location-led appeal and flexible use as a first home, holiday let or rental investment, but it requires a buyer comfortable with a quirky, compact, multi-storey property and the maintenance responsibilities that come with a historic building in a conservation area.
