The property
Offered to the market for the first time in over 40 years... Occupying a favoured position at the end of the development, Number 97 enjoys a pleasant setting with views towards the sea and a strong sense of privacy. Originally the final property before further homes were added along the Goldenbank area, meaning the house benefits from a larger than expected garden. Approached via a pathway running alongside the garage, the front garden is mainly laid to lawn, with the path continuing to the side of the house and front entrance. The property is neatly enclosed by a combination of timber fencing and an attractive stone wall, and there is the added practicality of a rear access door into the garage. To the rear, the west-facing garden is a particular highlight, enjoying afternoon and evening sun and offering an excellent degree of enclosure. Mature planting and established hedging combine with timber fencing and a characterful stone wall, which runs along one boundary from the rear through to the front of the property. The garden is attractively arranged with areas of lawn, raised beds and a generous paved terrace, ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing. An outbuilding is located to the rear of the patio, and a pathway runs conveniently along the side of the house, complemented by an external light for evening use. This property offers so much potential, set in a desirable corner plot and is available with no onward chain.
The location
Situated at the end of the popular Boscundle Avenue, Number 97 enjoys a favoured position with views towards the sea. The property is approximately 1.5 miles from central Falmouth and is ideally located for both town and coastal living. A nearby leafy footpath provides a pleasant walk to Swanpool Nature Reserve, beach and lake (around 0.6 miles / approx 10 minutes). The area is well served by a regular bus route into Falmouth, while Penmere railway station is approximately 0.8 miles away, offering connections to Truro, Penryn, Penzance and London Paddington. Everyday amenities including the Boslowick shops, petrol station and ‘early ’til late’ Co-op are all within easy walking distance. The location is particularly well suited to families, with three highly regarded primary schools within a mile and Falmouth Secondary School approximately 1.5 miles away. Falmouth is a vibrant coastal town renowned for its sailing waters, sandy beaches and strong maritime heritage. The town offers an excellent range of independent and high-street shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs, along with cultural attractions such as the National Maritime Museum and Events Square, which hosts numerous festivals throughout the year. With its south-facing seafront and access to the South West Coast Path, Falmouth consistently ranks among the UK’s most desirable places to live.
