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
The location of the property means that access to the amenities and shops of Penryn are just a short walk away, whilst the train station and Tremough Campus are also within easy reach. 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.
