Kimberley Park Road, Falmouth, TR11

THE PROPERTY

This is a great opportunity to own one of these desirable family homes that has been in the same family for many years. Now ready for its next chapter in life and in need of an uplift/modernisation the property could be brought back to its former glory. Accommodation comprises separate sitting and dining rooms plus kitchen downstairs with three double bedrooms and family bathroom upstairs. The property has been priced competitively to reflect the possible work required and design to personal requirements. Number 20 is set back from the road and fronted by a wonderful beech tree giving a good degree of privacy and noise reduction from the road. The rear garden is large (for a property so close to town and much larger than modern houses today) and at its end something unusual and a great bonus in this location for Falmouth…..off-road parking space for two cars!  

THE LOCATION

Kimberley Park Road is the well-known arterial road, running into Falmouth town and the waterfront, passing beside its namesake - the glorious and expansive Kimberley Park. The location is incredibly convenient and contains a fine selection of residential property, most of which date from the Victorian era, through to the 1920s and 30's. The town has a brilliant and diverse selection of restaurants, bakeries and bars and an eclectic mixture of shops, which include national chains, together with quality galleries showcasing local talent. Falmouth's seafront, on the town's southern side, is about a mile away, with sandy beaches, Henry VIII's Pendennis Castle and access to incredible walks and scenery along the Southwest Coastal Path. Nearby train stations (Falmouth Town and Penmere Halt) provide a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London, Paddington. Falmouth Docks are a major contributor to the town's economy and along with Falmouth University (with campuses in Falmouth and Penryn) and Falmouth Marine School, specialising in traditional and modern boat building, marine engineering and environmental science, ensure an all year round and vibrant community. There are five primary schools and one secondary school in the town and highly regarded independent preparatory and senior schools in Truro. Falmouth boasts the third largest natural harbour in the world and is renowned for its maritime facilities which offer some of the best boating and sailing opportunities in the country; little wonder the town is consistently ranked as one of the top five places to live in the UK
