House For Sale £475,000
Video tour available. If you’re looking for the individual and quirky, then the 'The Hidden House' in the heart of Falmouth could be what you’re looking for! This substantial Grade II listed, five double bedroom, period house offers versatile accommodation set over three floors. Currently a large family home, 'The Hidden House' offers a great deal of adaptability in terms of how the available space can be utilised. And with its central location the property would be ideal for anyone looking to run a business from home or could provide the space for combining family's with integral annex potential. The current owners have had plans drawn up that would divide the property creating two separate flats (subject to planning permission). The accommodation currently comprises a sun room, kitchen/breakfast room with a walk-in pantry, spacious inner hall, 27' living/dining room with two fireplaces, bedroom five/office and utility/cloakroom on the ground floor. The first floor provides four further double bedrooms (one with its own dressing room) and a family bathroom. Stairs from the first-floor landing give access to the loft room which is 30' in length offering plenty of natural light from the four roof lights and sash window and is currently being used as a playroom. This light and bright space would make an ideal studio or gallery. 'The Hidden House' is located in New Street enjoying a tucked away position yet right in the centre of this vibrant town. Steps lead down from the two private parking spaces to a walled sunken garden laid to lawn and patio that provides a good degree of privacy for such a central location. A Workshop that is accessible both internally and externally provides useful storage and subject to permission, offers potential to convert into even further accommodation. A large and adaptable property in one of Cornwall's most desirable coastal towns, that comes highly recommended.
Location
With New Street to one side of the 'Hidden House' and 'Cobbled' Church Street to the other, Falmouth's eclectic array of independent shops, cafes and restaurants are just a stones throw away. Falmouth is steeped in maritime history boasting the third deepest natural harbour in the world and offers a choice of stunning sandy beaches to include Gyllingvase with its converted Blue Flag. The picturesque Helford river and Fal estuary are close by and offer some of the UK's finest day sailing waters. Falmouth's Wood Lane arts university campus is within walking distance and Tremough Campus in neighboring Penryn offers a melody of arts and sciences in state of the art facilities.
There is never a lull in Falmouth's annual calendar, be it beer festivals, music events, food fairs, the sea shanty celebrations or sailing regattas Falmouth offers something for everyone.
