4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Pennance Road, Falmouth TR11

The property

We sold Number 33 about 20 years ago to its artistic current owners and marvel at how creatively it has been expanded and evolved. They have loved living here; fine tuning to their exacting standards and without expense spared. Built circa 1960, there is a lightness and practicality to the interior with almost 15002ft of effortlessly stylish, spacious and flexible accommodation. Upstairs are four bedrooms, three of which face the sea, with outlook towards Pendennis Head and Castle, beyond to St. Anthony lighthouse. The main bedrooms is a beauty with its ensuite shower room and extensive built-in furniture. ‘Living’ space is sociable and adaptable with separate but interconnecting 20’ plus long sitting and dining rooms, beside which is another room with French doors to the garden. A downstairs bedroom perhaps, little sitting room or study. The 22’ long solid oak fitted kitchen has German cooking appliances, with breakfast area at its end. A utility/cloakroom with WC is home to the @worcester’ gas fired boiler which runs the radiator central heating system. Standard of finish and quality of fitment is excellent with tip top presentation wherever you look. There is a effortless flow from home to outside, where a wall of glass and sliding patio doors in the sitting room, nudges out onto the terrace and into what is a glorious rear garden. This area is level, enclosed, richly stocked and established with some specimen plants and small trees such as an olive, acer and healthy grape vine, adorning a stout pergola. The house is nicely set back and screened from Pennance Road, again with beautifully conceived hard and soft landscaping and a wide brick pavior driveway to comfortably park a couple of cars in tandem. We believe 33 Pennance Road will impress the most discerning of buyers. For those seeking an uplifting home in a fantastic spot, this will be hard to equal.
