Tregew Close, Flushing, TR11

PROPERTY

17 Tregew Close is an outstandingly energy-efficient village home with an appeal and quality that is hard to find. Heather & Lay were about to sell number 17 about a year ago when the failure of a plastic joint in the roof space, on the mains water inlet, caused water escape and a flood. An insurance claim ensued and during the last twelve months the property has been refurbished and renewed, without any expense spared and at a cost of about £150,000. Number 17 was outstanding before but it was the discerning owner and her chartered surveyor partner’s aim, to ensure a high quality finish that was at least as good as, if not better than before. In our opinion this has absolutely been achieved! Over and above this the property has been expanded and ‘fine-tuned’ in recent years to create an impressive balance of three double bedroom accommodation, together with impressive living space that is generous, open plan but defined. All is impeccably presented, well equipped, modern and stylish, with a wonderful high ceiling, river view sitting room flowing out onto a superb terrace and into the garden. Quality and attention to detail extends outside, where there is a double garage and much driveway parking space. An oil fired boiler fuels radiator central heating and hot water supply, supplemented by solar Voltaic panels on the roof providing energy to the bungalow as well as a healthy income when fed into the national grid via a preferential ‘feed-in’ tariff. All considered this is a fantastic opportunity to own a wonderful home with an inspired, unused interior. Being sold with no onward chain.

Tregew Close is a select and much sought after cul de sac on the approach to Flushing village where, Number 17 lies in a great spot with glorious elevated views across to Penryn river and town and surrounding countryside. Flushing is a popular and highly desirable waterside village, a short, year round, foot ferry ride across the harbour from Falmouth. The village has an active local community and good everyday facilities such as a primary school, church, pub and restaurant, a general store as well as two restaurants. Those in the know make their weekly pilgrimage to The Food Barn at Tregew, half a mile away; it’s a Saturday produce market, where over 20 stalls come together to offer scrumptious, sustainable produce that is high in quality and encourages a supportive environment. Flushing, with its public slipway, is ideally placed for access to Falmouth harbour, the Carrick Roads and all tributaries of the River Fal, providing arguably some of the finest sailing waters available. There are a number of local sailing clubs and a gig rowing club with a boathouse. Mylor harbour is about a mile and a half away and provides excellent facilities including a marina with pontoon and swinging moorings, chandlers and a full range of marine services. The village is a sociable and inclusive place, popular with those residing permanently and also loved by those requiring a home for holidays. Flushing Arts group has a varied calendar of events and workshops, whilst the annual village pantomime provides opportunities for amateur dramatics and fun!
