THE PROPERTY
This fine granite house, built in 1910, was home to the market garden here and would have extended into much of the surrounding neighbourhood as we know it today. The house was built of cavity brick and faced in remarkable quality cut granite from Penryn Quarry. With just four owners in its lifetime, this is a wonderful chance to secure such a special and distinctive home with so much to offer. The house faces East and is filled with light, in an elevated position with glorious views from each floor overlooking its garden and beyond, through the valley, to Penryn River, Falmouth, Flushing, and to harbour and estuary. The property has been restored this year and is elegant and spacious within, presenting an exceptional, view facing double bay window reception room, with 9’ ceiling height, original floorboards and a fireplace with recently installed wood burner. This room, together with the sociable 27’ kitchen/dining room, accesses the large South facing terrace. French doors from the kitchen also lead into the sheltered rear courtyard where the utility/boiler room is found. Upstairs are four bedrooms, one with en suite shower room, and two with bay windows and super views. The spacious carpeted attic has velux windows and radiators; great to keep it dry and warm for storage. The garden is a delight, where much quality granite is in evidence as are many palms and established sub tropical plants. There once was a Victorian greenhouse where the South facing terrace stands. The original grapevine is still growing alongside, together with a more recently planted kiwi and fig tree. Beneath the terrace is an undercroft and access to the cellar. The owners have always had bats here, identified as Lesser Horseshoe, with whom they have been happy and excited to live alongside. 6 The Park is a home of remarkable style and individuality, available with no onward chain, and representing a wonderful chance that will be very hard to repeat.
THE LOCATION
6 The Park Lies in a great spot chosen in 1910 as the perfect position for a home and market garden. It sits prominently along a drive, tucked off Kernick Road, enjoying a commanding position with fantastic views and where so many amenities are close at hand. It is a leisurely 10-15 minute walk from the university, college and schools as well as the town and Penryn railway station, linking to Falmouth and Truro mainline to Paddington, London. The local ASDA superstore is also nearby together with College woods and its wonderful 6 mile circular walk passing 3 reservoirs and uplifting countryside scenery. Penryn is an ancient, historic and very interesting riverside and market town with a strong sense of community and good everyday shopping and schooling facilities. The siting here of the Universities of Falmouth and Exeter has created something of a renaissance to the area and reinforced the town's standing and popularity as a lovely place to live.
