The Property
An extremely low maintenance, one-off individual build, constructed circa 2003, situated on an elevated plot within a stone's throw of The Moor and Kimberley Park. Offering adaptable three/four bedroom accommodation with gas central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout, there is a large, low maintenance roof terrace/sun deck on the southern elevation which enjoys sun throughout the day and benefits from views over the town centre. Further attributes include an integral garage with electric roller door, private off-road parking and a self-contained bedroom suite, perfect for airbnb.
Internally, the property briefly comprises an entrance hall, large south-facing kitchen/dining room with double glazed door opening onto the roof terrace/sun deck. There is a separate living room and ground floor shower room, whilst at first floor level are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. At basement level is a self-contained bedroom suite, comprising a bedroom with built-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room - perfect to provide an additional income via airbnb, or or alike. There is also an integral garage at basement level, whilst a private off-road parking space is accessible at the front.
Throughout out vendors' ownership, the property has been utilised as a student let through the academic term, and as an airbnb rental through the Summer months. Collectively, these ventures return a combined amount of approximately £26,000; therefore, 'Grace Lodge' would make an ideal investment opportunity.
The Location
The property stands at the foot of Berkeley Hill, ideally positioned for The Moor and town centre, with its excellent array of shops and restaurants just a few minutes' walk away. Both junior and senior schools are also within easy walking distance, as is Kimberley Park and Falmouth's excellent public transport facilities with buses and trains regularly departing to the cathedral city of Truro, approximately twelve miles distant.
