2 bed detached bungalow for sale

Florence Place, Falmouth TR11

Enjoying a surprisingly private location within Florence Place, tucked away behind timber gates, a genuinely rare opportunity to purchase an individual detached bungalow, constructed during the 1950’s, now requiring a scheme of renovation to create a most appealing single storey home within this most sought-after address. ‘Woodside Bungalow’ comes to the market for the first time in over 40 years, boasting a detached garage and delightful south facing gardens.

The Location

Florence Place is widely recognised as one of the finest residential locations within the booming harbour town of Falmouth, by virtue of its proximity to the town centre, harbourside, seafront and beaches, all of which are within an approximate ten minute walk. Junior and secondary schooling is also nearby, together with many sports clubs, water sports facilities and an exceptional range of restaurants. The cathedral city of Truro is approximately twelve miles distant and is easily accessed by both bus and rail services.
