Falmouth is consistently ranked as one of the top five places to live in the UK.
The property Built by renowned local builders Grey Connelly circa 1970 and therefore offering larger rooms and garden than more modern housing stock. Built from block rather than the wooden framed houses favoured by todays developers, the property feels very substantial and full of natural light. There are patio areas to enjoy the sun (when we finally see some sun…..) and a decked veranda wraps around two sides of the house looking over the large garden. On the ground floor there is a kitchen that is in an extension, perfectly useable and a good size but quite tired and most buyers will likely update it to their own style. Just off the kitchen is a dining room which leads through to where the original "front door" was and where stairs lead to the first floor. Also on the ground floor is a bathroom and very nice sitting room with French doors out to the veranda and rear garden.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two of the bedrooms are doubles plus a single that is currently used as an office. The master bedroom has widows on two elevations with a far distant sea view from the front window. Our vendor has built an en-suite into one corner that fits perfectly and is very nicely thought out.
Outside, the garden is to the front and side and being a corner plot, it is larger than normal. Mainly laid to lawn and bounded by high fencing and mature planting of rhododendron and palms. A single garage has off-road parking in front plus pedestrian access on the side. There are also three small sheds in the garden.
Accommodation in detail (all measurements are approximate) Once through the high pedestrian gate, the main entrance now is through the kitchen (as that is located in an extension to the side). The original main entrance used to be at the front and in the middle of the house (this entrance is still there but not currently used).
Kitchen 12' 11" x 8' (3.94m x 2.44m) Glazed door and window to the front elevation flooding the room with natural light. A range of eye and base level units are on two sides and have plenty of useable work surface. The units are perfectly useable if a little tired, but a lick of paint and new worktop would transform this room. Space for white goods. 1½bowl white composite sink and drainer with swan neck mixer tap. Large Leisure Chefcentre 110 range cooker. Tiled floor. Glow Worm combination condensing boiler supplying heating via the radiators throughout the property plus hot water on demand.
Dining room 10' x 9' 1" (3.05m x 2.77m) An archway through from the kitchen opens into this dining room. A continuation of the tiled floor from the kitchen runs through this room, the entrance hall beyond and the bathroom. Radiator. Two understairs cupboards, one houses the fuse box which is a modern metal one with rcd fuse switches. The other is an open fronted cupboard and home to coats and shoes. A doorway leads to…
entrance hall Doors off to bathroom, sitting room and stairs to first floor (this used to be the entrance into the home but now a full length window not a door).
Sitting room 15' x 11' 11" (4.57m x 3.63m) Very bright room with windows on two sides flooding the room with natural light. French doors lead out to the veranda and garden. Laminate wood flooring. Radiator.
Bathroom 6' 1" x 5' 1" (1.85m x 1.55m) Fully tiled room with white suite comprising W/C, wall mounted hand wash basin and P shaped bath with plumbed mixer tap shower over. Obscure window to the side. Extractor. Chrome ladder style radiator.

En-Suite very nicely fitted en-suite with W/C, hand wash basin on wooden vanity unit and large shower cubicle. The tiling is white Victorian in style and compliments the black plumbed shower with rainfall head and hand attachment.
Bedroom two 9' 1" x 9' 1" (2.77m x 2.77m) Another good-sized double bedroom with large window to the front elevation. Alcove wardrobe. Radiator.
Bedroom three 6' 10" x 6' 1" (2.08m x 1.85m) Window to the side. Currently used as a home office but a single bed will fit.
Outside The garden is larger than most because its on the corner. Mainly laid to lawn with high fencing or mature planting. Not looking its best at this time of year but those with green fingers would relish the opportunity here. Raised vegetable beds, three small sheds, patio and veranda.
Garage 17' 10" x 10' (5.44m x 3.05m) A single garage but larger than most (lots of single garages are two foot smaller in width and makes getting in and out of the car difficult). Metal up-and-over vehicular entrance door is approached via the driveway giving off road parking. Side pedestrian access door. Electric sockets and lights.
