Semi-detached house for sale in Messack Close, Falmouth TR11

The property

We like Messrs Wimpey Homes design which was built in the 1970's, favouring comfortable proportions and decent space around. This one is exciting for those seeking establishment and privacy in an enclosed garden, being a semi detached with side access. Accommodation is spacious and bright, with three bedrooms and a modern shower room upstairs. Downstairs is a separate sitting room and a kitchen diner with sliding patio doors leading out into the rear enclosed garden remarkably private. As you enter the property you are welcomed into a modern front porch with a window and skylight offering natural light and there is space for coats and shoes. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a raised decked area and further patio space, all ideal for multiple seating areas, outside dining and BBQing. What was formerly the garage is now split into two rooms; one with a door to the front for a storage area and a utility area with electric and plumbing available, and a side door to the rear which is currently used as an office/garden room with the added benefit of a shower room again with electricity supply and water. Windows and doors are modern with uPVC double glazing and a modern gas-fired combination boiler fuelling the radiators and hot water supply. To the front is a private driveway as well as two parking spaces in tandem to the side of the property. Overall this is an impressive family home offering plenty of natural light, spacious modern living and with a convenient location in Falmouth making it an ideal family home. Highly recommended for a viewing to fully appreciate this home and is available with no onward chain.

The location

Messack Close is a popular 'no through road', in a much favoured and elevated situation on the outskirts of Falmouth, within about one mile from the town, harbourside and Swanpool Nature Reserve and beach. The location is convenient for local shops including an excellent 'early till late' Co-op, great as ones 'corner shop. Primary Schools at Mongleath (St Marys & St Francis Schools) and Marlborough School are nearby, as is Falmouth's community secondary school & college on Trescobeas Road. The property was built in 1975 during a time of less intensive development than is the norm today, resulting in relatively lower density housing with decent garden size and spacing, often lacking in the town's more recent schemes. There is a regular bus service nearby, providing access to Falmouth and Penmere Train Station located at the other end of Boslowick road which offers railway links into Falmouth Dell, The Docks, Penryn and Truro, with links to Penzance, London Paddington and other principal cities. You will also find excellent walks, countryside and cycle routes all on your doorstep as well as Falmouth Golf Club and other social clubs like sea swimming, tennis, squash and many more. Falmouth is renowned for its beautiful period buildings and wonderful sailing waters; a true sailors town Falmouth has seen a renaissance over the past ten years and offers a vast array of bars, restaurants and pubs to suit all tasters. Famed for its many inspired eateries, festivals and regattas, the town also offers a good selection of shops, from boutiques to high street retailers.
