DESCRIPTION

Tresillian House is a very interesting freehold property indeed. Currently arranged as four individual units of accommodation that have been let on assured shorthold tenancies for about the last thirty years of our client’s ownership, the building now has fantastic potential for use as a holiday letting investment. Alternatively, this was originally one large house and there is potential to revert back to this and either incorporate or keep the cottage separately. Or even just amalgamate two of the apartments to make owners accommodation, all of which would be subject to all necessary consents first being obtained.

Marazion continues to grow in popularity and demand with holiday rental prices continuously increasing and Tresillian House is in a frontline position taking in the all important views of St Michael’s Mount and across Mounts Bay. From the upper floors the long sandy beach can also be seen and the view is constantly changing with the tides and weather and is enlivened with water sports including dinghy racing, gig rowing, paddle boarding and kite surfing which are all popular here.

3 Ref: LCAA6777 This handsome semi-detached three storey building has high ceilings and bay windows on the ground and first floors which have ornate elevations protruding from the stone façade. These attributes also provide the ground and first floor apartments with voluminous main rooms. The ground floor apartment has a huge bed sitting room to the front with a kitchen and shower room to the rear whilst the first floor apartment is arguably the most desirable with a very large sitting room, kitchen also enjoying the views and a bedroom and bathroom to the rear. The top floor has dormer windows off one of the bedrooms and its open-plan kitchen/sitting room so they both enjoy the outlook and there is a further bedroom and shower room to the rear. In addition, the building has a very sizeable rear wing containing a traditionally laid out two bedroomed cottage without a sea view but with a significant amount of privacy and shelter.

All of the individual units would benefit from updating to make them desirable to the types of holiday makers who pay handsomely to spend time in this location and this therefore opens up the possibility of slighting reconfiguring some of the apartments should it be deemed necessary. Having said that our client has very much kept on top of the fabric of the building which was re- roofed in 1996 and was re-wired with a new fire alarm system in 2016. It now just remains for an incoming owner to place their own stamp upon Tresillian House and enjoy this excellent investment.

One of the common problems with properties in Marazion is a lack of parking due to the ancient nature of the town but Tresillian House has a huge three car wide and at least three car deep parking area to the front. Above this is a full width recently paved terrace providing space for the occupants of the apartments to all enjoy the south westerly aspect and views. To the side and rear are broad paths and a courtyard at the back which can be considered as private space for the cottage at the rear or could be utilised for water sports and bicycle storage.

LOCATION

Marazion is a renowned beautiful coastal town fronting Mounts Bay and overlooking St Michael’s Mount itself. St Michael’s Mount is one of Cornwall’s most popular tourist attractions and can be approached at low tide over a drying causeway. The village of Marazion is well served with shops, art galleries, inns, restaurants and even a dinghy sailing club with regular racing throughout the season. Marazion 4 Ref: LCAA6777 has a long sandy beach to the west which is popular with walkers, kite surfers and windsurfers.

A couple of miles to the west is Penzance, considered the capital of West Cornwall, where there is a large array of local and national retailers, schooling for all age groups, including the Bolitho private school and a hospital. There is a mainline rail terminus at Penzance with direct trains to London Paddington, while the A30 expressway is nearby giving quick access throughout the county and to the motorway network at Exeter.

Marazion is positioned at the narrowest point in Cornwall, with St Ives Bay being around a 15 minute drive to the north. The north coast offers long sandy beaches and excellent surfing, whilst the town of St Ives is famed for its galleries found in the quaint cobbled streets surrounding the harbour. West Cornwall has a rugged beauty and there are an incredible number of stunning inland and coastal walks along with hidden and secluded coves. p GENERAL INFORMATION
