I can't believe what utter crap is on the market in and around Penzance. Like I've probably said before, (almost) regardless of the price there is nothing to buy within 3 miles of Penzance. Most of the stuff on Rightmove has been on there for many, many months.

I guess this point is demonstrated by the fact that when anything half decent (and without some glaring issue) comes on to the market it sells within weeks. Here's an example http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-34752224.html?premiumA=true - has gone SSC in less than a month. There was another place I liked in Newlyn about a year back that went pretty sharp too.

Are there actually any houses worth buying in this town?!

£475k for this f-ugly thing. When are these people going to realise that someone is not going to spend 1/2 a million to live in an ugly pebble dash house in a 2nd rate village 5 miles from nowhere. Don't they look at fecking Rightmove and think 'hmm, these places are much nicer than ours. Cheaper too. Oh, and they've been on the market for a year'??

And I'll tell you what - some of the prices are on the daft side of crazy, others sensibly priced.

Probate sales seem to be much more realistic.

The 'we need to get what we paid' are living on another planet.

Next year should see some nice blood-letting in Cornwall :)

Don't be too sure, they're plotting more QE.

£700K - reason sea view, famous artist previous owner. But it ain't pretty, its a bugger to get to and its pretty average when you look at it.

I've seen better houses in Newlyn going for £450K

Very nice location, very nice gaff, too expensive IMO - 550k would be better.

I don't agree about access :)

If it's on next spring I would be interested.

Who's the artist BTW?

i mentioned the Zenith apartments at Porth, Newquay in the other Cornwall thread, i think it was earlier this year when the developer went bust & an administrator was appointed.

looks like they've finally got their act together & are going for the hard sell, just as the season is coming to an end! just hope they do get full residential use passed by the council as they'll be a utter dead duck without it.

Connor Downs - £400k. I'd expect to get the whole *****ing village for that much! I think the vendors are assuming their completely out of character makeover make it worth an extra 40%

That and they need to pay of the Argos bill for all the utter crap they've filled their house with!

Found it on Steetview. What a dump. Right on the road and next to a used car lot.
