Millerson Estate Agents are proud to bring to the market this deceptively spacious and truly unique Grade II listed three-bedroom ground floor apartment, bursting with history, character, and charm. Formerly the well-known Cornish Arms, this distinctive building has been sympathetically and tastefully converted into a collection of bespoke residences, with this apartment enjoying the rare advantage of occupying the entire ground floor. Offering a perfect balance of heritage features and modern comforts, it presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking the convenience of single-level living, a stylish first home, or a lock-up-and-leave bolthole in one of Cornwall’s most desirable locations.
On arrival, the sense of history is immediately apparent. The property is entered through the original wooden door, which opens into a bright and welcoming entrance hall, setting a warm and inviting tone. The heart of the home is the expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area, an ideal space for entertaining, family gatherings, or relaxed everyday living. From here, the layout flows effortlessly to three generously proportioned bedrooms, each offering flexibility for use as sleeping accommodation, guest rooms, or even a dedicated study or hobby space. A tastefully fitted shower room completes the interior, blending contemporary styling with the building’s character.
The appeal of this apartment extends beyond its interior. Externally, residents enjoy access to a beautifully maintained communal garden, shared with the neighbouring apartments. Mature foliage, established planting, and thoughtfully arranged seating areas create a peaceful retreat, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee, summer barbecues, or simply unwinding with a book. In addition, the property boasts its own separate cellar, equipped with power and offering endless potential, whether utilised as a home office, creative studio, or simply as practical storage. Further benefits include private residents’ parking, as well as additional visitor spaces for the convenience of friends and family.
The property has a 999-year lease already in place and connections to mains water, electricity, gas, and drainage. The home also falls within Council Tax Band B. Viewings are highly recommended to appreciate all this exceptional apartment has to offer.
St Blazey is a small town in south Cornwall, about three miles east of St Austell and just inland from Par. Once an important centre for tin, copper and china clay mining, as well as railway transport, it now serves mainly as a residential and local service hub. The town lies close to the River Par and Par Harbour, with the famous Eden Project just outside its boundaries. Together with nearby Par, it forms a community that blends industrial heritage with easy access to the coast and countryside.
