Property description
The property
We were surprised to find this attractive slate roofed, double fronted cottage hidden away at the end of this pretty Opeway. The property was likely once detached from the neighbouring property many years ago. The cottage is in need of modernisation, providing well-proportioned two bedroom and two living room accommodation. The shower/wet room is located upstairs and a modern Worcester gas boiler fuels radiator central heating and hot water supply. To the side is an unusually good-sized walled, now overgrown, garden about 75’ x 30’ (22.86m x 9.14m), a summer house and timber shed. South View Cottage is unusual, providing great scope and opportunity in a hidden yet central location.
The location
South View Cottage is discretely accessed along a slate flagstone floored opeway, tucked away yet near the centre of this historic market town. Penryn has an active community and good everyday facilities including nursery, primary and secondary schools. The town enjoys good communication with Falmouth via its bus service and train station, which links to Truro City and mainline Paddington. Penryn is enjoying something of a renaissance being the home of the University of Cornwall which incorporates Dartington College and also of the regeneration and development of Penryn’s inner Harbour and Harbour village. Penryn College is a huge asset to the town, with its strong reputation and excellent facilities. Falmouth town (approximately 2 miles) provides comprehensive shopping, schooling, business and leisure facilities together with a harbour and blissful seafront and beaches.
