Introduction

A key attraction of this spacious and lovingly cared for home is its location. Whispers combines superb water views with privacy that is accessible by foot or vehicle to shops, restaurants, beaches, pubs and sailing facilities in the central village area. Set in a partially elevated grandstand position to take advantage of the mesmerising views, the unassuming exterior warrants an internal inspection to appreciate this unique property's versatile accommodation.

The Views

Mere photography does not do justice to the views. These encompass Summers Beach to Place, St Mawes Harbour, the National Trust owned St Anthony Headland, Falmouth Bay to the English Channel and Lizard Peninsula. The bay and harbour are a hive of marine activity all year round.

Description

This 1970's built property faces south south west and was built to a design which optimises its location. Noteworthy internal features include its first floor balcony, its wide picture windows particularly in the open plan living room and separate sitting room. Externally are landscaped and private gardens and sun terraces, providing parking facilities and a double garage, along with a private pedestrian gate to one corner of the garden providing a short cut to the beach, all of which are a sought after rare attribute so close to the village centre.

Summary

Even though the property is ready to move into, it has potential to extend its current circa 2356 square foot accommodation into extra living space if required and subject to any necessary planning consents.
