A sunny and secure rear garden catches sun throughout the day due to its southerly aspect. THE PROPERTY Dating back to the mid-late 1700s, 42 Broad Street exudes charm and enjoys unique character. Positioned equidistant from the heart of the town and Penryn River, directly opposite 'The Square,' this double-fronted property boasts a bespoke kitchen crafted from reclaimed pitched pine, complemented by polished granite work surfaces. As you would expect from a listed cottage, the many traditional features remain, including a superb slate-floored hallway, timber doors and staircase, 2 fireplaces, sash windows and exposed stone walls. The main ground floor rooms comprise a superb living/dining/kitchen with wood burning stove and vaulted ceiling above the kitchen units along with a separate snug/study/playroom or 5th bedroom. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three of which are generous 'doubles,' offering picturesque views of the Georgian square. The tastefully refitted family bathroom/WC completes the upper level. The property also benefits from a 2024 installed PIV (positive input ventilation) system. Outside, an enclosed courtyard garden, accessible from the hallway and kitchen, faces south and provides a real sun trap: approximately 30' in length albeit narrowing at the end where a lawn could be laid, if required. The property is centrally heated with regular servicing of the gas boiler and the cottage has been re-wired during our client’s ownership. THE SITUATION Located just 150m from the head of the Penryn River, perfectly positioned for the superb historic town's amenities, the neighbouring port of Falmouth, beautiful south coast beaches and exceptional day-sailing waters of the Fal Estuary. Regular Bus services operate from Broad Street itself and also Penryn Bridge, just a 1 minute walk away. Penryn Railway Station can be assessed 'on foot' within 10 minutes, the easiest way to access Falmouth and Truro, which in turn links directly to Paddington Station, London.
