Set over three floors in the heart of Polperro, this mixed-use mid-terrace combines a fitted retail unit and a separate two-bedroom maisonette with a south-facing garden and distant sea view. The ground-floor retail space was upgraded and benefits from three-phase electricity, making it well suited to commercial operators, creatives or a new bakery/café venture. The maisonette has an open-plan living/kitchen area, two doubles and a shower room; it has previously performed as a holiday let and is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain.
The building dates from before 1900 and retains period stone walls; the property offers clear potential for refurbishment and rental income but requires attention to energy performance and insulation. The maisonette carries a low EPC and the walls are likely uninsulated; heating is electric with a boiler and radiators. There is also a small garden with a stone patio and village/sea outlook that enhances lettability and private amenity.
Important practical points: the site lies within a high flood-risk area, so flood resilience measures and insurance costs will be necessary. The sale will be by public auction, freehold and sold as a mixed commercial/residential lot with vacant possession. This will suit buyers looking for a seaside investment, conversion/refurbishment project or an owner-occupier who can manage the flood risk and energy upgrades.
