Gordheweth, Church Road, Penryn, TR10 9HN

Situated in the 'heart' of this ever-popular village, close to Penryn and Falmouth and enjoying commanding, panoramic views over miles of Cornish countryside to St Austell in the distance, a substantial, detached, individual, non-estate dormer bungalow, in need of general cosmetic improvement but providing extensive and highly adaptable 4/5 bedroom, 2 bathroom accommodation with parking, 2 garages and a surprisingly large rear garden.

The Property Believed to date from the 1960s and in the same family's ownership for approximately thirty years, 'Gordheweth' has been the subject of a substantial extension and loft conversion to provide highly adaptable and particularly well proportioned four/five bedroom accommodation, arranged over two storeys.

A deep front driveway leads to a forecourt and turning area, with access to two garages, one integral, the other with a workshop area to the rear.

Additional parking can be provided, if required, through double gates onto a side parking/garden area, beside which there is access to a useful under-floor storage void situated below the lounge extension.

The side and rear gardens are overgrown but are surprisingly large, enjoy a high degree of sunshine, are well enclosed by shrub borders and, like the main rooms in the property, enjoy the far-reaching views as far as St Austell in the distance.

A path and ramp provides ease of access from the forecourt, with a broad entrance porch opening into a 'central' reception hall.

The living room, having been extended, is particularly well proportioned and lies adjacent to a family sized kitchen/breakfast room, from which a stable door leads into a conservatory and the rear gardens.

At ground floor level, there are currently two bedrooms and a fully tiled bathroom, as well as an internal door to the integral garage which, seemingly, could be easily incorporated into the accommodation, if required, subject to all necessary consents.

A further ground floor 'room', ideal as a study, accommodates the staircase leading to the first floor, where there are two further bedrooms, a second fully tiled bathroom, and extremely versatile fifth bedroom or upstairs living room which opens onto a broad balcony, from where the views are particularly far-reaching.

The property is double glazed and has an oil fired central heating system but is in need of general cosmetic improvement to decor, floor coverings and, probably, kitchen and bathroom fittings etc.

A manageable 'project', ideal for a family etc wishing to move into a well served village with day-to-day amenities 'on the doorstep' and Penryn and Falmouth just a few minutes' drive away.

For sale with the additional benefit of immediate vacant possession and no onward chain.
