About this property
Greatly extended, spacious & flexible, split level bungalow, located in a private position at the end of a quiet residential cul de sac around 700 yards away from the exclusive st mawes waterfront and village centre.
Enjoying far reaching views over falmouth bay and glimpses of the percuil river and sea beyond
A generously proportioned home with annexe potential, great for multi- generational living or also offers letting potential, only about 0.5 of a mile walk to the numerous village amenities, beaches and sailing facilities, of all that makes this location great.
We strongly advise an appointment to view internally to fully appreciate the qualities of this deceptively spacious home.
Property:
The property offers great flexibility given the large extended part. It is currently arranged as 4 bedrooms, but the property has a versatile layout to cater for those perhaps wanting fewer bedrooms and extra reception space. The property would suit a variety of buyers and could be a large family home, or retiring buyer given you have ground floor living. A great permanent or a holiday home given the location.
The property has been greatly extended during our clients’ long ownership. In the original part two rooms have been opened up to now provide a 24’7” x 12’9” open plan kitchen/dining/living room with large windows front and rear with views to the sea, open countryside and even a glimpse of the Percuil River.
This room gas a multi fuel stove with back boiler set into a fireplace with tiled hearth. Stone effect flooring. Space for sofa and dining table.
The kitchen fitted with a range of painted fronted kitchen units under roll edged stone effect countertops with a white ceramic 11⁄2 bowl sink and drainer with chrome mixer tap over. Integrated electric oven/grill with four plate induction hob and concealed filter hood over. Space within the units for an upright fridge/freezer and dishwasher.
In the middle of the bungalow is a further reception room currently providing a workspace and room for gym equipment, but this would also be ideal as an additional sitting room or playroom for children. This room forms the link between the original and extended parts of the house with halls giving access to the four bedrooms, a bathroom and separate large shower room with underfloor heating.
The two bedrooms in the extended part are very large indeed with both of them having French doors on to south facing terraces as well as additional windows.
For anyone looking for an extra income stream then these two rooms have great potential for Airbnb style letting. One of them also has a dressing area which backs onto the shower room giving the potential to create an additional en-suite
The family bathroom has a modern white suite including a panelled bath with chrome taps, glazed shower screen and electric shower over. Pedestal wash basin with chrome taps, wc. Stone effect flooring, pale grey stone effect wall tiling and heated towel rail.
Further shower room with screened walk-in shower enclosure with electric shower. White ceramic wash basin with ceramic counters to either side and chrome mixer tap. Concealed cistern white wc and fitted white cabinetry to base and wall level with a mirror, shelf and integrated lighting. Stone effect wall tiling, tiled floor with electric underfloor heating and digital controller.
On the first floor in the extended part of the property is a large vaulted ceilinged lounge with a sit out balcony off from where there are views across Falmouth Bay and glimpses of the water and coastline around St Mawes.
Externally:
Balcony – 10’1” x 9’2” A spacious sit out wood floored balcony with chrome and privacy glass screening facing south and taking in wonderful views.
Parking & garage
To the front of the property is a driveway with parking for 3 cars leading to the detached garage. A picket fence and gate to the side of the drive open to the front lawned garden.
Detached garage – Block built construction with a metal up and over door to the drive and part obscure double glazed pedestrian door to the rear garden. Double glazed window to the rear. Power and light.
Gardens: The outside space has been designed to work with the sun throughout the day with the front garden and terrace picking up the morning sun enjoying complete privacy.
Across the south east facing front of the property is a lawned garden enjoying a relatively private position with hedging, young shrubs and a maturing tree to one side. A small patio provides a nice place to sit with an outlook towards countryside and the sea in the distance.
A pathway then extends around the side of the extended part of the property with a further shallow patio although the principal place to sit is found to the southern end where there is a circular patio edged with low walls backed by planted beds.
The planted beds continue along the south western side which is edged by hedging and more mature shrubs including a rhododendron.
The pathway then continues around to a rear garden that is elevated allowing it to enjoy sun throughout the day. Here there is a patio fringed with pebble topped beds and smaller areas of lawn, all of which enjoy total privacy and seclusion. Outside water tap and coal/log store.
Location:
The Cornish coastal village of St Mawes has been voted as the “Top Seaside Town in the UK”. This enchanting south facing harbour village, named “Britain's St Tropez” by the Daily Mail, is found on the eastern side of the Fal Estuary, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Much of its surroundings are owned by the National Trust. The village is centred round its quaint harbour, its own beaches and castle.
The village has superbly varied and accessible sailing waters and an active sailing club with a full programme of village regattas, club races and various national championships to cater for all ages.
There is an all-year-round pedestrian ferry service to and from Falmouth which is approximately 5 miles away.
St Mawes has long been one of the West Country's more desirable and exclusive destinations, with Olga Polizzi's Hotel Tresanton and the chic Idle Rocks Hotel both luring the rich and famous. It has a wide range of amenities, which are open all year, including butcher, baker, convenience store, post office and newsagent, doctors, hairdresser, dentist, pharmacy, village hall, church, delicatessen and clothing shops.
