House For Sale £395,000
Appealing 1930s semi-detached house presenting freshly decorated, well-equipped and spacious three bedroom accommodation with two generous reception rooms, a bathroom upstairs and shower room/WC downstairs. Set in a generous plot with 70' deep South Southwest facing rear garden, plenty of parking space and a garage, this is a great value and characterful family house.
The property This is a great value family house with so much to offer, both inside and out. Owned by the same family for many years, 126 Dracaena Avenue is a rather elegant, freshly decorated, bay window semi with a spacious interior and comfortable specification. Nice to approach into an enclosed entrance porch before entering the good-sized hallway where a twice turning staircase leads to the first floor. There are separate sitting and dining rooms that interlink by double doors, opening into a fine 'double' bay window reception room 27' (8.23m) long and with 8' 6" (2.59m) ceiling height. The dining room accesses the rear terrace and garden, via sliding UPVC double glazed patio doors. Beyond the contemporary gloss cream kitchen is a downstairs shower room/WC, in addition to the family bathroom upstairs.
Two of the three bedrooms have wardrobes built-in, windows and doors are UPVC double glazed and a gas boiler fuels radiator central heating and hot water supply.
Number 126 sits in a generous plot with 70' long rear garden to enjoy summer sunshine for much of the day. We like the easy access onto a large and sheltered paved terrace. To the front is a driveway and parking space for several cars and a garage/workshop measuring 16' x 11' (4.88m x 3.35m).
The location Dracaena Avenue is the arterial road leading through Falmouth, to Pendennis Castle, Drive and beaches, where Number 126 is comfortably within a quarter of a mile from the riverside and Sainsburys and three quarters of a mile of Falmouth town, harbourside and seafront.
Falmouth has a diverse selection of restaurants and an eclectic mixture of individual shops as well as national chains, together with quality galleries showcasing local talent.
A local train station (Penmere halt) provides a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London, Paddington.
There are five primary schools and one secondary school in the town and highly regarded independent preparatory and senior schools in Truro.
Falmouth boasts the third largest natural harbour in the world and is renowned for its maritime facilities which offer some of the best boating and sailing opportunities in the country. The town is consistently ranked as one of the top five places to live in the UK.
