Camilla House - Regent Terrace - 9 Bed Home with Basement Flat

Camilla House, Regent Terrace - Penzance

A distinguished Regency home with sea views, separate annexe & proven guest house success
This beautiful period home dates back to the early 1800s and has retained a wealth of Regency features, including elegant high corniced ceilings, deep skirtings and original flooring. Arranged over four floors, the property also includes a self-contained lower ground floor flat with its own entrance, ideal for multi-generational living or commercial use.

We particularly love the principal drawing room with its original marble fireplace and the stunning kitchen/dining room, both boasting large sash windows and a wonderful southerly aspect towards the sea.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial home in one of Penzance's most exclusive terraces. Regent Terrace is renowned for its beautiful architecture and its immediate proximity to the town's finest attractions: The Jubilee Pool, the promenade, Morrab Gardens, the historic seafront and the vibrant town centre. The mainline rail station offers excellent links across the UK, while Newquay Airport with regular flights to London and multiple UK and European destinations - is just over an hour away.

The property would make a superb family residence but also has exceptional commercial potential. It has been successfully operated as a guest house for many years, benefiting from its generous accommodation, prime seafront location and the year-round demand for high-quality stays in Penzance. The layout naturally lends itself to continued guest house use, boutique accommodation, or an elegant home with income.
