Detached bungalow for sale in Foxs Lane, Falmouth TR11

The property

This individual detached 1960’s bungalow with expanded four bedroom interior, lies in an outstanding and much sought-after spot and ‘leave the car at home’ location, a few minutes walk from town, harbourside, seafront and station. Broadeaves has been the current owners’ very happy home for 28 years and in 2007 was the subject of an extension project resulting in the spacious, comfortable and practical house we have today. Windows and doors are UPVC double glazed and a ‘Worcester’ gas boiler fuels radiator central heating and hot water supply. Property and opportunities like this are incredibly rare where ‘family-sized’ accommodation is so well situated and set within a decent sized and established garden, facing South to the rear. Together with four decent bedrooms, we have light filled living accommodation including a 19’ sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room and a separate dining room with French door access into the garden. From the entrance Lane, a double width driveway parks several cars and leads to a single garage with potting shed/store behind.

The location

Foxs Lane is a highly regarded residential address and much sought-after by those ‘in the know’. Better still, Broadeaves lies in a special spot, tucked away off Foxs Lane, along a private drive accessing this and just one other property. Its convenience is remarkable where the town, harbourside and Events Square are just a few minutes’ walk away and so much of what delights about Falmouth is on the doorstep. Brilliant to have an early ‘til late Tesco Express as one’s local and where a leisurely 10-minute walk reaches the seafront and beaches. Opposite the bungalow are the Dell woods and walkway leading to the Dell station, just a minute or two walk away where the train runs behind Broadeaves and provides a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London Paddington. There is an excellent and diverse selection of restaurants in the town along with an eclectic mixture of individual shops as well as national chains, together with quality galleries showcasing local talent. Falmouth boasts the third largest natural harbour in the world and is renowned for it maritime facilities which offer some of the best boating and sailing opportunities in the country. Falmouth is consistently ranked as one of the top five places to live in the UK and Foxs Lane is a prime place to live within the town!
