With partial sea views and just 500 yards from the harbour of Penzance, this mid terrace Georgian house, extended in Victorian times, is tucked away in a quiet residential no through road.

Double fronted, the property offers spacious family accommodation arranged on three floors with high ceilings, sash windows and some of the original wooden window shutters.

Approached from the narrow lane, a neat path leads through the walled and gated garden with a small lawn to the front entrance porch and from there into a central hallway with reception rooms on either side. To the left is a comfortable sitting room with lounge seating for five arranged before the fireplace, and an inter connecting day room with a piano, seating for four and French Windows opening to a sheltered sunken garden with outdoor seating.

On the opposite side of the hall, there is a second sitting room with comfortable seating for five set before the open fire and a spacious kitchen / dining room at the rear with shaker style fitted units and a large bay window overlooking the Georgian sunken garden. In one corner of the kitchen, four unrailed steps lead up to a rear lobby with space for beachgear and a back door opens to a walled and gated gravel terrace and parking area for two cars.

Stairs from the main hallway lead down to the lower ground floor where there are a coats area and a utility room with W.C., shower cubicle, Belfast sink and laundry facilities.

The first floor accommodation comprises of five pleasant bedrooms and a family bathroom W.C. with wash basin, shower cubicle and a bath with hand shower attachment. There are two double bedrooms at the rear of the property, one with a 5ft bed and the other with a 6ft bed; and three front facing bedrooms with oblique sea views over the rooftops and with a double, a single, and twin beds respectively.

Town facilities include museums, botanic gardens, cinema, art galleries and a tennis club. Helicopters and a daily ferry service also operate from Penzance to the Isles of Scilly. A lovely level promenade and the Jubilee open air bathing pools are less than a mile away and Marazion, 2 miles, has beautiful sandy beaches and a causeway leading to St Michaels Mount. The picturesque villages of Newlyn and Mousehole are just a short drive away.
