11 Woodlane, Falmouth, TR11 4RD

The property This wonderful Victorian home has a long and interesting history....once home to the famous artist Sophie Gengembre, who lived at the property from 1894 - 1903 as the blue plaque on the front wall notes.

Since 2016 the property has undergone a series of works that have improved and modernised this 175 year old family home to meet the standards of today.

So much originality and period features still remain and the large rooms with tall ceilings means it flows well and is flooded with natural light.

The accommodation is on three levels with four of the bedrooms on the top floor and a fifth study/bedroom on the ground floor.

The sitting room has windows to both the front and rear, with the view from the rear worth a moment to pause and enjoy.

On the lower ground floor a large kitchen/dining room and utility room both giving access to the large rear garden.

The garden itself is pretty and bordered by a very nice old stone wall that give privacy and security.

The location Woodlane is one of Falmouth's most sought-after and valuable addresses, set up above and a few minutes' walk from the town and harbourside.

The house is so convenient for all that is lovely about Falmouth near the town and harbourside, whilst the seafront and beaches are less than a mile away.

The local 'Provedore' café/tapas bar is inspirational and nearby 'Sea View Inn' and 'Jacob’s ladder' are a must.

Junior and secondary schooling facilities are nearby at King Charles and Trescobeas, and many faculties of the Combined University of Cornwall are within a few minutes' walk along Woodlane.

An early 'til late Convenience stores is close by at Albany Road.

The nearby Dell train station provides a half-hourly service to Truro's mainline station where there are frequent services for Exeter and London, Paddington.
