THE PROPERTY Pengarth Road and Rise were built by respected SNW Homes in the 1980s, at a time with often more generous plot sizes and amenity space than is usual with developments today. Number 53 is an excellent example of the popular three storey design, having been thoughtfully and extensively improved throughout, to create a home of quality and style that is ideal for modern living, both in and outside. Accommodation is beautifully presented with three bedrooms and refitted bathroom on the 'top' floor. The 'middle' level is a sociable space with a sitting room to the front aspect offering plenty of space and then a kitchen and dining room, where a rear door provides access and flow so nicely into the rear garden. All combined and comprehensively equipped with plenty of fitted units and space for appliances. Windows are UPVC double glazed, and a mains gas Worcester boiler fuels radiator central heating and hot water supply. The rear garden is a treat; designed with a stylish eye, for maximum enjoyment and minimal maintenance. Here, we have three level areas with either a terraced first tier, a patio ideal for outside dining on the second tier and a large private lawn on the top terrace. At the front, the drive and a lawned area can park two cars and leads to a generous single size converted garage with space for a double bedroom, furniture and living space, as well as a modern shower en-suite. All in all, an outstanding home in this great location, unhesitatingly recommended! THE LOCATION Pengarth is one of our very favourite modern developments in Falmouth, tucked away from the town yet within a leisurely 15-minute walk to the shops and harbourside. Gyllyngvase and Swanpool Nature Reserve and beach are nearer still with some glorious walks and scenery on one’s near doorstep. Pengarth is on a regular bus route and Penmere railway station is just a third of a mile away. There is a pick of two lovely local Primary Schools at Marlborough & King Charles and Falmouth Secondary School is just a mile away. Falmouth is renowned for its beautiful period buildings, wonderful sailing waters and offers a vast array of bars, restaurants and pubs to suit all tastes. Famed for its many inspired eateries, festivals and regattas, the town also offers a good selection of shops, from boutiques to high street retailers. No wonder then, that Falmouth is consistently voted in the top ten favourite places to live in the UK.
