Description

To be sold for the first time in 24 years, a 'one of a kind' detached bungalow with extremely large harbour-facing garden, occupying a truly fabulous and substantial area, ‘perched’ above Falmouth’s bustling town centre and boasting exceptional, panoramic, far-reaching and ever-changing views over Falmouth’s inner and outer harbour, to Flushing, the Carrick Roads and The Roseland peninsula, yet so close to the town and its many amenities. Arranged over ground floor level and a deceptively large lower ground floor, the property comprises 3 double bedrooms and offers tasteful, characterful accommodation, with many original 1930’s features retained and nurtured. Over recent years the property has been subject of notable investment, to include full rewiring, replumbing, complete replacement of all sanitary ware, radiators and double glazed windows. A truly rare opportunity to acquire one of the largest and most prominent garden areas along one of Falmouth’s prime harbour-facing terraces, a rarity in such a location so close to the town centre. A viewing is unhesitatingly recommended to fully appreciate this idyllic property, which sits elegantly and discreetly over this thriving town centre. The Location - Erisey Terrace is one of Falmouth’s most highly sought after harbour-facing terraces, by virtue of its stunning views, together with the convenience of town centre amenities which are quite literally 'on the doorstep'. Shops, offices, banks, pubs and restaurants are all within a short walking distance, together with leisure amenities including the Royal Cornwall Yacht Club, multi-screen cinema and Prince of Wales Pier with regular passenger ferry services to Flushing and St Mawes. Other notable attractions within this thriving town include the National Maritime Museum, beautiful headland walk around Pendennis Point, sub-tropical gardens and sandy beaches, with regular bus and rail services providing direct and easy access to the cathedral city of Truro, just twelve miles distant. The Property - In its elevated position 'perched' above the town, ‘The Peak’ is perfectly located to enjoy the stunning and ever-changing outlook across the inner harbour to the port area, Trefusis Headland, deep waters of the Fal Estuary and shoreline of The Roseland peninsula beyond. Most deceptive from the roadside, the property's accommodation is both well proportioned and versatile with the rooms comprising in brief: ground floor entrance vestibule, entrance hall, cloakroom, three double bedrooms (one en-suite), double aspect living room, family bathroom, large triple aspect kitchen and separate utility room. The deceptively large lower ground floor benefits from heating and comprises two basement rooms. Throughout, the property boasts airy and light accommodation, high ceilings, and is filled with much charm and character. Externally, the property offers the rarity of a 'one of a kind' garden, in our opinion, due to its size and vantage point, taking in a panorama of Falmouth's ever changing marine activity.
