An unusual opportunity to purchase a Grade II listed 3/4 bedroom mainly first floor maisonette that has been successfully let to students over the years, currently providing an excellent return on investment (ROI), with rental income of £2,000pcm, resulting in a gross yield of over 8%.

LOCATION

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 town enjoys good transport links with Falmouth via a regular bus service and train station nearby, 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.

A viewing is very highly recommended, and many buyers will appreciate the current income being produced.
