Step into an affordable first home in Penwithick — a chain-free two-bedroom flat with a long 990-year lease and a valid PRC certificate. The flat offers practical living: two double bedrooms, a generous lounge and a kitchen/diner with large windows that bring good daylight. Double glazing is fitted throughout and there is an enclosed rear lawn, a rarity for flats in this area.
The property requires cosmetic modernisation throughout, so it suits buyers ready to add value through sensible updating. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the building has timber-frame elements with assumed partial insulation; a survey is recommended to confirm thermal performance and any remedial works. On completion a modest annual service charge of £299.04 applies.
Location is convenient for St Austell and the A30, with local shops and amenities close by and mainline rail access a short drive away. Council Tax band A and a low service charge help keep ongoing costs down. There is no allocated parking, but on-street parking is available nearby.
A straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer or investor prepared to modernise: the long lease, PRC certificate and no onward chain reduce purchase risk, while cosmetic refurbishment offers clear potential to increase comfort and value.
