Description
A very rare opportunity to acquire a consented site for the conversion of an existing stable block and the development of a stunning, architect designed, 3/4 bedroom contemporary residence, located within the idyllic surroundings of Maen Valley, on the immediate outskirts of Falmouth, offering excellent proximity to the town yet nestled away in a highly private and rural setting. 'Gwennel Dowr' is situated within an attractive plot of approximately 0.5 of an acre. The development site is very close to Swanpool Nature Reserve and Budock Water, with easy access to the iconic South West Coast Path, leading to Maenporth Cove. Planning Application number PA24/07550.
Location - 'Gwennel Dowr' is situated on the quiet rural road leading into Maen Valley, within approximately one mile of Swanpool Beach and the south Cornish coastline, and two miles from the centre of the port of Falmouth. Maenporth Beach, Mawnan Smith, Trebah and Glendurgan Gardens, and the sailing waters of the Helford River are a few minutes' drive away, as are the sailing waters of Falmouth Harbour and the Fal Estuary, together with the university campus at Tremough. The cathedral city of Truro is approximately twelve miles distant, and from where there is a main-line rail link to London (Paddington).
