THE LOCATION
Budock Cottage lies on the corner of Trescobeas Road and Lambs Lane in a prominent position that is so convenient and accessible to the town’s facilities. The cottage lies a few minutes’s walk from Trescobeas Secondary School, Falmouth Hospital, the surgery with pharmacy, and Trescobeas Premiere Stores, opening early til’ late. The town and harbourside are a leisurely 15-20 minutes walk away, whilst Swanpool Nature Reserve and Beach is about 30 minutes. Public transport is available by way of bus stops close by and we are a short walk to Penmere train station, linking Truro and its main line directly to London Paddington.
THE PROPERTY
This ‘Arts & Crafts’ house is one of very few in Falmouth, having been designed by renowned architect, Alfred Cornelius, and built in the early 1900s. Arts & Crafts was an influential movement of the late 19th and early 20th century which attempted to re-establish the skills of craftmanship threatened by mass production and The Industrial Revolution. One of the main principles of the movement was that buildings were constructed using local and varied materials and traditions. Thanks to the use of skilled traditional construction methods, it is no surprise that Arts & Crafts homes have stood the test of time and remain a significant part of our architectural history. Quality at Budock Cottage is remarkable with materials that would be financially prohibitive to use today. Fine granite is evident everywhere, for example, the curved steps up to the Tolkienesque, wisteria adorned front door with granite portico and corbels. Delightful dormer windows are cut into the Delabole slate roof with its ornamental offset brick chimney. Inside, Budock Cottage is charming and stylish with a clever blend of the original and comfortable modern. There are three upstairs bedrooms (the main en-suite) and a superb, luxurious bath/shower room. We love the entrance hallway and twice turning staircase, the kitchen with dining bay window and the generous sitting room with a woodburning stove and easy flow on to the south facing terrace. An additional room downstairs is flexible as a fourth bedroom or dining room, perhaps. The garden is level, established and well orientated with two lovely large terraces. Two posts and gates lead onto a driveway with a detached, generous single size garage at its end. There is a useful 12’ x 8’ outbuilding, great as a utility and for storage, as well as a lovely little hideaway cabin, tucked into the ‘secret’ garden.
