Minutes from Penzance promenade, this elegant Grade II Listed Regency town house overlooks its shared gravel driveway and private south-facing garden. Semi-detached and divided over five floors, The Merchant’s House exudes memories of a bygone era. Steps lead down to the stylish kitchen/dining-room and modern wet-room on the lower ground floor. On the ground floor, the sumptuous sitting-room has views towards Mount’s Bay; stairs then lead to the first floor and a second sitting-room with an open fire and even better sea views. An adjacent bedroom houses an amazing 6’ wide, 9’ long four-poster bed. The second floor is home to a twin bedroom, and a south-facing double bedroom and family bathroom both enjoying sea views. The gorgeous third floor double bedroom (low ceiling so take care) has a bath and sitting-area boasting panoramic vistas from the Lizard peninsula eastwards to Newlyn westward. This beautiful house is ideal for exploring the spectacular coast and rich artistic heritage of Cornwall’s far west.
