Semi-detached house for sale in Bohill, Penryn TR10

The property

This old coach house is steeped in history with the original workshop/garage dating back over 100-150 years and the added first floor built in the 1960s. This property has so much to offer and further potential to create something rather special. The first floor is accessed via a lane on Bohill, through the front courtyard and leading to the front door. The accommodation is spacious throughout including a large kitchen/diner with plenty of units and space for white goods, a southerly-facing sitting room and two double bedrooms. The bathroom is also a good size and modern. The front courtyard is pretty with stone walls enclosing its boundaries and some rather lovely double smithy handmade wrought iron gates. Now to the original part of the building; the garage/workshop is accessed via communal steps from Bohill or St Thomas Street providing vehicular access leading onto a separate Bohill Road. The 660sq.ft space provides a very useful storage area or studio with further potential to develop with a large garage door and separate external door. Viewing is a must to fully appreciate the potential.

The location

Bohill is set in a convenient location on a tranquil lane in the old part of Penryn, mere moments away from the prestigious Anchor Quay development and the water's edge. Penryn Harbour Village is part of the restoration and regeneration of Penryn Harbour which further provides nearly 100 character homes and includes the refurbishment of important listed buildings. So much history and character is available within this area which makes this a rather special location. This rather unique old coach house offers a prime spot near to the Penryn River, woodland walks, 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 town full of surprises and surrounded by lovely countryside. The building of Glasney College in 1265 placed the town on the map with the arrival of Falmouth and Exeter University turned Penryn into a buzzing and vibrant area. Many local sports clubs 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, with a 6th Form 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.
