THE PROPERTY

One of the oldest properties in Mylor, located on one of the most desirable roads, this lovely cottage has been extended to accommodate as many as five bedrooms (depending on how one uses the versatile accommodation), plus two large reception rooms, a sitting/dining room featuring a lovely bow-bay window. The gardens are pretty and well-stocked, with a hidden and peaceful patio area to enjoy the ambience. To the rear of the garden, there is a large block paved parking area which, depending on the size of the vehicle, could make way for four cars or a boat or a camper van. There is so much to see here, so do watch our walk-through, talk-through video tour to appreciate this amazing home.

THE LOCATION

Church Road has long been one of the most desirable and sought-after addresses in South Cornwall; winding its way along the south bank of this pretty creek from the village of Mylor Bridge to the church and yacht marina at Mylor Churchtown.  Mylor Bridge is a thriving and much sought after Creekside village with an active community and good local amenities including a primary school, church, the Lemon Arms pub, well stocked village store and Post Office, Newsagents, Hairdresser, Dentist, award winning Butcher's shop and a Fish seller. There are two pre-school playgroups, tennis courts, a Bowling Green and a children's play area. There is also a regular bus service running to and from Falmouth and Truro. The village is located approximately 4 miles from Falmouth harbour town and 8 miles from the Cathedral city of Truro, each having comprehensive schooling, shopping, business and recreational facilities. The delightful harbourside village of Flushing is about 2.5 miles away. Mylor Creek is a tributary of the River Fal and leads into the Carrick Roads with access to some of the finest day sailing waters available. For the sailing and boating fraternity, the creek offers outstanding and exciting opportunities. There is a boatyard and a number of active local sailing clubs including those at Restronguet, Mylor, Flushing and several in Falmouth. Mylor Harbour is about 1¾ miles away and provides excellent facilities including a marina with pontoon and swinging moorings, Chandlers and a full range of Marine services, along with two restaurants and a general store/café.
