RETAIL PREMISES WITH TWO BED APARTMENT TO LET - 49 QUEEN STREET - Penzance - Cornwall

LOCATION:
Penzance lies at the western end of the Cornish peninsula facing on to Mount’s Bay on the south coast of Cornwall. The town is the principal retailing centre in the district previously known as Penwith and is a relatively busy commercial centre accommodating the Council offices and Magistrates Courts. Communications from Penzance are good with a direct link on to the A30 which forms the arterial road into and out of the County, linking with the M5 at Exeter. The town also has an Intercity Railway station providing a regular service to Paddington, London.

SITUATION:
The property lies towards the top of Queen Street, close to the junction with Chapel Street and a short distance from the town’s prime retailing area.

DESCRIPTION:
The building is arranged on three floors and comprises a ground floor shop with adjacent kitchen and small storage area. Stairs lead to the first and second floor residential apartment. Formerly office premises, the upper floors have been rearranged to provide a kitchen with basic units at ground floor, a large lounge and bathroom at first floor and two bedrooms at second floor level. The apartment would ideally suit a business owner or could act as manager/staff accommodation. Sole access to the apartment is through the shop. Alternatively, the upper floors could again be used as office accommodation.
