Berkeley Vale, Falmouth, Cornwall

PROPERTY
Available chain free, this Grade II Listed versatile family home offers between three and five bedrooms and two to four reception rooms. Having been recently re-decorated throughout which included the removal of spray foam loft insulation, the house is in move-in condition.
There is still a chance to put your own mark on the house however - some might consider replacing the kitchen for instance. The garden is a superb asset to the house. Approximately 190 feet long, divided into three distinct areas with a cobbled patio area at the rear of the house, a lawned terrace and then a wilder woodland area and orchard to the rear, it is a gardeners paradise. With mature trees and specimen plants throughout, a path running it’s length and a walled far boundary, which could, subject to planning permission, be opened up to create a private parking area, or possibly a second plot.
To the front the house sits back from the road with a small walled front garden.
Entering the four-square, centre hall planned home there are reception rooms on either side of the inner hall. These are south facing rooms and, like the rest of the house, have plenty of character. A sitting room to the right has feature stone walls with a south facing window and a fireplace with inset wood burner and a slate hearth.
To the opposite side is a dining room with a stone fireplace which is flanked by built in bookshelves and cupboards.
To the rear of the ground floor is the kitchen. A range of base and wall mounted, painted, timber cabinets offer plenty of storage. There is a stainless steel sink with drainer and a small worktop. The original stone fireplace houses a stove and there is space for a free standing fridge. A low door leads out to the rear courtyard.
Opposite the kitchen is a third reception room or ground floor bedroom. There is a w/c and small shower room under the staircase in the hall.
Upstairs, there is a large, south facing, reception room with painted timber floor, a fireplace and two sash windows to the front elevation.
There are another two double bedrooms on this floor as well as a family bathroom and a utility room.
For those looking for a character home in a central location, this house should be considered. It is of generous proportions and has the flexibility to suit a large family.
Alternately, it has previously been used both commercially, and as a holiday let, either of which could be an option for some.
With an exceptionally large garden which has space for a ‘garden room’ home office and potentially private off-road parking, it may also suit someone working from home.
This property has so many options, it should be viewed to be appreciated.
