This stunning interior designed townhouse is being offered to market. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity. Book your viewing today! Hunters are proud to introduce this fabulous ‘Crooked Townhouse’, where 19th century character meets stunning 21st century design. Painstakingly renovated by a talented interior designer, this two-bedroom home exudes a sense of modern sophistication, whilst preserving its historical charm and whimsy. From the meticulously restored centuries-old staircase to the Victorian-era mosaic tiles, sash windows, and charming exposed beams, each character feature tells its own tale of bygone eras. The contemporary design elements are equally remarkable, with the beautifully modern kitchen and bathrooms standing out as exceptional features. This property is available fully furnished, ready for you to move straight in. The accommodation briefly comprises two bedrooms each with en-suite facilities, kitchen, dining room, sitting room, and ground floor wc. We recommend booking an appointment to view at your earliest convenience.
There are two ground floor entrances to the property, leading directly off chapel street. The first takes you into the sitting room, and the second leads into an extension dining room. Very interestingly, our vendor informs us that the area now utilised as a spacious dining room, was once utilised as a commercial shop - this has us thinking about all the possibilities! Our vendor also informs us that they had considered turning the dining room into a third bedroom for B&B purposes. Before making any change of use, we always recommend consulting with the local authority with regards to if any consents or planning is required.
This exceptional property is located on the chic and historic Chapel Street in Penzance, within easy reach of the harbour, promenade, and an array of trendy cafes and shops. One can spend a leisurely afternoon browsing the unique boutiques and enjoying a delightful lunch at the beloved local café, Whits & Bay. Afterwards, one can take a refreshing stroll down to the Promenade, breathing in the invigorating sea air. The scenic seafront path leads all the way to the picturesque fishing town of Newlyn.
Chapel Street is more than just a street; it's a historic gem of Penzance, celebrated for its stunning period architecture, home to certain properties recognised by Historic England. It is believed to be one of the oldest streets in the town, and in our opinion is one of the most aesthetically pleasing. The mainline railway station is conveniently located just half a mile away.
Do you want to know more about Penzance? A Port Town with Proper Charm…
In the late 1700s this Cornish town became a haven for pirates, smugglers, and other bandits, who used the town’s harbour and nearby coves, as a base of operations. One hundred years later, the town would become indelibly linked in the public’s consciousness, to this romanticized time period, when Gilbert and Sullivan released their famous comedic opera, “The Pirates of Penzance”. The premiere screening of which, took place at the Fifth Avenue Theatre in New York City, and made its London debut a year later. You may be relieved to hear, that when you visit modern day Penzance, you are unlikely to encounter roaming buccaneers, galleons and gunpowder. You are, however, very likely to encounter warm hospitality, ornate architecture, picturesque scenery, and an abundance of local activities to enjoy.
You might be surprised at the strength of the links Penzance also has to more modern popular culture.
For example, the town was the childhood hometown of Primetime Emmy Award winning actress Thandiwe Newton OBE, who recently played a starring role in America’s hit TV show ‘West World’. Penzance was also the childhood home to famous actor Sam Palladio, well known for his role in ABC’s stateside soap opera ‘Nashville’.
