Daniels Sail Loft, Harbour Village, Penryn, TR10

THE PROPERTY

The historical Daniel Sail Loft is a conversion of a magnificent Grade II listed granite riverside building into six apartments. Apartment 1 is located on the ground floor in a prime ‘Southerly facing’ position enabling great views over and up the river, to the footbridge and also towards Penryn Bridge and shoreline beyond. This characterful property retains reclaimed and original characteristics from the former wharf, incorporating shuttered windows, beams, lintels and posts together with whitewashed granite walls and we believe is a rather special apartment here in the Harbour Village. There is a resident Kingfisher in this stretch of the river and swans, egrets, mullet and bass come and go on the ebb and flow of the tide. The apartment is a spacious throughout with two double bedrooms and generous sized sitting/dining room where one can open both windows and feed swans below the seated windows. Complete with a designated parking space, this would make an exciting permanent, holiday or letting investment opportunity and is ready to move into due to being looked after and currently a successful Airbnb holiday rental. Please get in contact for further information on the Airbnb investment figures and will be sold vacant possession with no onward chain.

THE LOCATION

Penryn’s harbour village is part of the restoration and regeneration of Penryn harbour which provides nearly 100 character homes, cottages and apartments and includes the refurbishment of important listed buildings. This charming residence offers a convenient position nearby to woodland walks, Penryn river and good access links to some of Cornwall’s beautiful South Coast beaches. Penryn is one of the oldest towns in Cornwall, having received its first charter in 1265; a full town of surprises and surrounded by lovely countryside. The building of Glasney College in 1265 placed the town on the map then the arrival of Falmouth and Exeter University has turned Penryn into a buzzing and vibrant area. There are many local sports clubs who are active in the community including Penryn football club, St Gluvias Cricket Club and Penryn Rugby Club. Penryn is served by Penryn Primary Academy and Penryn College, whilst a 6th form can be found available at Falmouth School. The town enjoys good communication with Falmouth via its regular bus service and its train station, which links to the city of Truro and mainline Paddington service. Falmouth town (approximately 2 miles) provides an eclectic and more comprehensive range of shopping, schooling, business and leisure facilities.
