Tredova Crescent, Falmouth

THE PROPERTY This exceptional and individual dormer residence was built in the 1960s in an outstanding location, set off Tredova Crescent at the head of a small cul-de-sac. The plot size is remarkable, measuring 0.26 acre in size, and indeed is one of the largest and most impressive of any home seen in the seafront area. The rear garden faces south southwest and is ‘Park-like’ in its feeling, having been landscaped and richly planted to provide colour and great interest, in complete privacy from the neighbouring property. Lucarne is a bright and spacious home with three double bedrooms; two fine dormer rooms upstairs, providing lovely, elevated town, seafront and coastal views, and one bedroom downstairs. In addition to the social 20’ plus kitchen and dining room, the 21’ sitting room, with Scandinavian wood burner, flows so nicely onto the rear terrace and garden. Beside the terrace and sitting room is an appealing and flexible room, much used by the current owners, and great as a studio/garden room or annexe, perhaps. A tarmac drive provides parking for several cars and leads to an integral garage with electronically remote-controlled door opening — all in all, an outstanding home in wonderful surroundings, highly recommended. THE LOCATION Lucarne, 22 Tredova Crescent occupies one of the most sought-after and uplifting residential positions in Falmouth. Its location is superb, at the head of a small cul-de-sac, slightly tucked away of Spernen Wyn Road and beside Falmouth seafront, where bay, coast and Gyllyngvase’s sandy beach are just a few minutes’ walk away. Lying on Falmouth’s sea-facing, south side. Lucarne is also within ½ mile from the town and harbourside, which adds a wonderful and very different dimension to the town, where there is an excellent and diverse selection of restaurants and an eclectic mixture of individual as well as national chains, together with quality galleries showcasing local talent. Nearby train stations provide an easy link to Truro and mainline Paddington, London. The harbour, Carrick Roads and its tributaries provide some of the best boating and sailing opportunities available and help consistently and reliably keep Falmouth as one of the top five places to live in the country.
