Detached house for sale in The Gables, 2 Kelley Road, Falmouth TR11

The property

Built, we believe, in the 1950s this attractive and distinctive Cornelius designed detached property lies within a colourful and richly stocked landscaped garden that is in excess of a third of an acre. Accommodation is characterful and comfortable, with one ground floor bedroom and two further bedrooms upstairs along with the family shower room. Also on the ground floor is a sitting/dining room overlooking both the front and rear gardens, a large conservatory also enjoying the views across the rear garden, and a kitchen and boot room. The property provides great scope to extend subject to necessary planning consents. All in all, a thoroughly appealing and well situated home with so much to offer- viewing highly recommended.
