A truly stunning interior-designed penthouse apartment built in 2022, finished to exacting standards and offering commanding views across its historic communal gardens. The owners have lived abroad during their ownership, so the property has been used sparingly in this time, whilst being updated to their specific specification.

The attention to detail and quality of finish are second to none, with no expense spared to create a tranquil and contemporary living space complemented by period views of the connected Grade II listed York House, originally built in 1825 as the country residence of the locally renowned John Pope. This beautifully designed apartment reflects the owner’s personal vision, combining practicality with exceptional style throughout. At the heart of the home is a large reception room, providing an impressive yet comfortable space for both relaxing and entertaining. The property features a Symphony kitchen with fully fitted cabinetry, quartz worktops, and a bespoke dining booth with a snug seating area, creating a stylish and sociable kitchen space. The apartment benefits from hardwood Karndean flooring throughout, enhancing the sense of quality and continuity across the living spaces. The bedrooms and reception areas are further complemented by Sharps fully fitted furniture and storage, offering both elegance and practicality. A standout feature of the property is the four private balconies, with all principal rooms enjoying direct access to outside balcony space, allowing for seamless indoor–outdoor living and wonderful views across the surrounding gardens and historic architecture. Additional benefits include lift access to the penthouse level and beautifully maintained communal gardens for residents to enjoy. This is an impressive and spectacular apartment — the very definition of a turnkey home — and viewing is highly recommended.

Situated close to the A30, Armistice House offers easy access to St. Ives, Truro and Land’s End, plus a wide range of amenities. The popular seaside resort of Mousehole is also a short drive away, making this a most desirable place to call home. Penzance is Cornwall’s most westerly major town, with a population of 21,000. Pennsans translates as ‘holy headland’ in the Cornish language, after the former St Anthony’s chapel, which stood over the headland to the west more than 1,000 years ago. This penthouse apartment offers best of both worlds, with an array of amenities located nearby, while the beautiful Cornish coastline and countryside are also within easy reach. Those looking to eat out will be spoilt for choice, with a variety of pubs, restaurants and takeaways within walking distance. Art and culture lovers are also well-catered for, with several galleries, a cinema and museum nearby. Sports fans will find a leisure centre with pool and gym close by, along with football, rugby and cricket clubs. Those looking to enjoy nature can explore the pretty Penwith Heritage Coast with its quaint quays and tranquil harbours. There are Ofsted-rated schools for all age groups, and plenty of doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries in the nearby locality, including the new St Clare Medical Centre on your doorstep.
