THE PROPERTY
Positioned on the first floor of this characterful building on The Terrace, this two-bedroom flat is one of those properties that feels considerably larger than you might expect. The open-plan kitchen and living area is the heart of the home, a genuinely spacious and sociable room, with plenty of room for a sofa, dining area and the breakfast bar that separates the well-fitted kitchen. Timber sash windows to the front fill the space with masses of natural light throughout the day.
Both bedrooms are proper doubles, well-proportioned and bright. Bedroom 1 sits quietly to the front at a good size, while Bedroom 2 enjoys a similarly comfortable feel. The bathroom has been tastefully refitted and presents well. Outside, there is a private decked terrace by the front door, south-facing and just the right size for a couple of chairs and a coffee in the sun.
THE LOCATION
Penryn is one of Cornwall’s oldest and most characterful towns, having received its first charter in 1236 and grown to become one of the county’s most vibrant and diverse communities. The arrival of Falmouth and Exeter University has breathed fresh energy into the town, sitting alongside an already rich mix of independent shops, galleries, bars, a delicatessen, pharmacy and much more, all within easy reach of The Terrace.
The university campus at Tremough is a comfortable 10 to 15 minute walk away, making this a particularly attractive proposition for anyone connected to the university. An out-of-town supermarket is just a mile or so distant, while bus and rail links offer straightforward connections to Falmouth and beyond. Penryn punches well above its weight as a place to live, and this flat sits right in the middle of it all.
