Description

This Grade II listed property is situated in the heart of Helston, presenting a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment. Formerly utilized as an office, the property includes a spacious three-bedroom apartment on the first floor and a one-bedroom cottage at the rear, both of which are ripe for modernization. A small private courtyard adds to the charm of this unique offering. Located on Wendron Street, just a short distance from the town center, this property benefits from high foot traffic and visibility, making it suitable for various business uses while providing residential space above. The layout allows for flexibility; it can function as a live-work environment or purely as an investment asset with potential rental income. The ground level features an entrance hall that leads into multiple office spaces, one with a generous bay window overlooking Wendron Street. This area offers ample scope for conversion into commercial premises or additional living space. The rear office includes practical amenities such as a storage cupboard and adjoining facilities, which could be updated to meet modern standards. Access to the first-floor apartment is via a staircase leading to a landing rich with period details. The lounge boasts historic architectural elements coupled with views toward Coinagehall Street, creating an inviting atmosphere. Each of the three bedrooms provides an opportunity to enhance living space through renovations while retaining original character. The kitchen offers functional layout possibilities with existing infrastructure ready for new installations. The dining area also presents options for reconfiguration to maximize space efficiency. Moreover, the cottage at the rear requires refurbishment but holds significant potential for rental or guest accommodation once improved. It features its own living area and kitchen, along with a shower room and bedroom, both needing updating but possessing distinct character that could appeal to future tenants or buyers. This property is not only situated in a vibrant market town but also falls within a conservation area, offering further potential for value appreciation post-renovation. With mains services already connected and planning opportunities available in this sought-after location, this listing represents a unique chance for those looking to invest in real estate with renovation potential in Cornwall.
