THE PROPERTY
This handsome, imposing and substantial detached house is, in our opinion, an absolute gem and a real rarity in the current market. Very few detached Victorian houses with views of the harbour even exist, let alone enter the market within this prime area of Falmouth town centre.
The accommodation is unique and desirable, packed with many original features from its construction in 1870, coupled with clever alterations to provide versatile options for living space. In its current configuration it is a 5 bedroom property, with a dedicated office space and 3 bath/shower rooms and a separate one bedroom annexe for private lettings or accommodation for a dependant relative. Currently, our clients have opted to utilise the annexe as a form of holiday letting as well as a private space for their friends and/family, yet still returning a gross income of over £10,000 per annum. However, the layout is amazingly interchangeable and could also be configured to a 6 bedroom house.
Internally, the standard of finish and appointment has been vastly improved over the years and most recently with a redecoration and re-carpeting in all rooms. Unusually, for a Victorian house, various up-to date technology has been introduced. This includes a 4kw solar panel array generating a net gain of up to £2,000 per annum via the Feed-in-Tariff, in addition to an electric vehicle charger which feeds directly from the solar panels on brighter days.
Standing in an elevated position and enjoying a wonderful aspect to the rear towards the harbour and Maritime Museum, Cromwell Cottage could not be better positioned for those requiring easy access to the town and beaches, both within a 10 minute walk and Falmouth Town railway station within a 3 minute walk. As many will know, Lansdowne road also benefits from little through traffic, as it is not one of the main routes in or out of the town.
