LOCATION
The Land at Penwarne is situated on the periphery of the coastal villages of Mevagissey and Portmellon, within the Roseland Peninsula on the south coast of Cornwall, approximately 7 miles to the south of the town of St Austell.
The property is located in a traditional agricultural area, with a number of established and well serviced coastal and inland villages in close proximity.
The region caters for a large number of visitors throughout the year, who visit the area to enjoy the beaches, coastpath and coastal destinations of Mevagissey, Gorran Haven and Pentewan to name but a few. As such, the area is served by a plethora of tourism and leisure businesses, including the nearby Lost Gardens of Heligan, the Eden project outside St Austell, watersports and boating activities. A full range of accommodation is available throughout the Roseland area, ranging from rustic campsites to hotels, along with high quality retail, food, drink and restaurant businesses, many of whom source their produce from local suppliers.
Mainline train services with direct routes to London run from St Austell or the county town of Truro, 17 miles to the west, with national and international flights operating out of Newquay Airport, 21 miles to the north.

How will you fund the purchase?
Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.
Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.
They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.
However advantages of working with your bank are:
You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
