SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Communal entrance, stairs to the second floor. Second Floor: entrance hall, sitting/dining room with balcony, kitchen, shower room. Stairs to the:- Third Floor: double bedroom Outside: balcony. DESCRIPTION An extremely well presented second floor one bedroomed duplex apartment in one of Penzance’s old historic properties on the edge of the town centre with a glorious position that affords the apartment some lovely views out over Mounts Bay, St Michael’s Mount and the surrounding coastline. The conversion has been in sympathy with the original building leaving such features as exposed trusses and beams, vaulted ceilings and some exposed stonework. The comfortable accommodation comprises a communal entrance hall with stairs up to the second floor landing which runs along the rear of the building providing access to the apartments. This duplex apartment is mainly on one level comprising an entrance hall, generous size sitting/dining room, well equipped kitchen with cream gloss units, wood effect laminated worktop surfaces, an excellent range of integrated appliances, undercounter pelmet lighting and LED kick board lighting. There is also a well appointed shower room with quality tiling. From the sitting/dining room a turning staircase ascends to a double bedroom which is galleried above the living space below and has a large skylight window providing lovely views out over Mounts Bay and the surrounding coastline. LOCATION Wharf House is situated on the inward side of the promenade road that runs along Penzance’s seafront which is home to some of Penzance’s more impressive original buildings, some of which were residential and some associated with the fishing industry. There is also a LIDO swimming pool and opposite the apartments is a car park and marina. This apartment enjoys some lovely views across the car park and marina to Mounts Bay, St Michael’s Mount and miles of the surrounding coastline. The apartment building is one street away from Penzance’s high street and thus within easy reach of all its wide spread amenities including a variety of shops, cafés restaurants and local inns. Penzance has a bustling thriving community with a mainline rail link to London Paddington with approximate travel time of 4½ hours. There are excellent beaches in the vicinity at Long Rock, Marazion, Perran Sands, Karneggy Sands and Praa Sands following the coast to the east. To the west are the picturesque fishing villages of Newlyn and Mousehole, the latter being famous for its Christmas lights
