Master bedroom with dressing room and en-suite shower room, 2 further double bedrooms, bath/shower room. Outside: electrically gated entrance and under cover parking for one car. DESCRIPTION The Penthouse, 20 Ocean Blue Apartments is found in a fantastic location beside the historic harbourside in Penzance mere steps from Abbey Slip, a granite cobbled granite slipway into the water that was historically for launching lifeboats among other uses. Now it is the perfect way to access these tranquil waters for swimming, kayaking or stand up paddle boarding. This contemporary apartment stands as the only penthouse in the building looking out over the harbour and from its elevated vantage point out across Mounts Bay to St Michael’s Mount and the Lizard Peninsula coastline. This is the first time that The Penthouse has been available since it was sold from new at the start of 2013 and it could certainly be considered as one of the most desirable apartments around Mounts Bay. The building has a pleasing curving fronted design under a pitched slate roof with the curve followed by a glass fronted balcony off the main reception room which opens on to it through bi-fold doors which slide out of the way. This exceptionally

For anyone searching for a secure yet spectacularly positioned contemporary purpose built apartment around the coastline of Cornwall, The Penthouse, 20 Ocean Blue Apartments, should certainly be of serious consideration due to the quality of accommodation, specific location and excellent views with all year round boating activity.

LOCATION Penzance is considered to be the capital of West Cornwall and is at the end of the Penzance to Paddington main railway line with direct trains to London. The town has a rich seafaring heritage and its centre abounds with period buildings which now house a wide array of high street names and more specialised retailers. The area is also famous for its arts and there are many galleries in Penzance and neighbouring Newlyn which also offer a large and colourful fishing fleet. Within Penzance there are hotels, restaurants, cafés, museums, education for all ages and a hospital. West Cornwall is known for its rugged beauty and is surrounded by the South West Coast Path which leads over dramatic cliff tops to sheltered coves and larger sandy beaches. Just to the east of Penzance is the village of Marazion and St Michael’s Mount which can be accessed by foot across a causeway at low tide. There are many other sandy beaches including Praa Sands to the east, whilst to the far west is Sennen Cove and Whitesand Bay near Land’s End, a 2 mile long stretch of beautiful white sands beside a picturesque harbourside village that is renowned for surfing. To the south is Mousehole which attracts people from all over Europe to see its harbourside lights at Christmas and about 20 minutes’ drive to the north is the resort and surfing town of St Ives which is considered to have the best light for painting in Britain as it reflects off the waters of the 4 mile wide St Ives Bay.
