Marlborough Avenue, Falmouth, TR11

THE LOCATION

Trenavin, 12 Marlborough Avenue occupies a very special residential spot, much sought aer for its convenient setting between Falmouth town and harbourside, seafront and beaches. The house lies along a no through road with only neighbouring cars passing, and indeed where one can leave the car at home and reach the town, nature reserve and beaches within a leisurely 10-15 minute walk. It’s a great position where the prominent and individual homes here seldom become available, and cause quite a stir when they do. The highly regarded Marlborough Primary School is just a few hundred yards away, as is Penmere Railway Station, providing a convenient link to the mainline at Truro, for Exeter and London Paddington. The town and its harbourside have an excellent and diverse selection of restaurants and an eclectic mixture of individual shops as well as national chains, together with quality galleries showcasing local talent. Falmouth is a wonderful place to live and is renowned for its maritime facilities which oer some of the best boating and sailing opportunities in the country.

THE PROPERTY

Trenavin has been a much loved home, in the current family’s ownership for almost 60 years. In this time it has been thoughtfully expanded to fit the growing family’s requirements and needs. The accommodation is nicely proportioned and very well cared for, although most prospective buyers may budget to modernise, to one degree or another. There are four bedrooms, a bathroom and separate WC upstairs and two good sized living rooms down. The extended lounge has a step free shower room beside and access out via sliding patio doors onto a generous terrace overlooking the rear garden. There is plenty of light flooding in at Trenavin; windows are UPVC double glazed and a gas fired boiler fuels radiator central heating and hot water supply. Built in the late 1930s we believe, at a time of decent garden sizes and spacing, Trenavin has a wonderfully established and well stocked garden with parking space for 3 or 4 cars on the driveway and with a pleasant outlook to the rear. All in all, this is a rarity and a great opportunity to own a distinctive and spacious detached home in one of the best residential spots in Falmouth.
