Description
This is a superb opportunity to purchase a chain-free, large, double-fronted family home a short distance from Falmouth town centre and seafront. It is currently utilised as a licensed house of multiple occupancy (HMO)and lets to students grossing £3500 per calendar month. Planning permission for a two-bedroom detached dwelling in the rear garden has also been granted.
This property can either provide the new owner with an income from the existing tenants, with the option of building the dwelling to the rear to generate further income, or it could be converted back to a beautiful family home with an annexe in the rear garden.
The property is entered via an entrance vestibule that leads to the entrance hallway with a staircase to the first floor, currently utilised as bedroom one, which was the original living room with a large bay window to the front. Bedroom two is located to the rear of the property, as is bedroom three; both are double bedrooms. There is a separate cloakroom/WC and a family bathroom. The kitchen has a side entrance door and window, a generous range of working surfaces with cupboards and drawers below and matching wall-mounted units, a door leading to a breakfast room with French patio doors to the rear garden, and a door to the laundry/utility. Bedroom Five is the former dining room with a large bay window to the front.
The first floor has a spacious landing area with a deep storage cupboard. Bedroom six is another double bedroom with a double-glazed window and Velux window, so it has lots of natural light. There is a shower room with a shower cubicle, wash hand basin, and WC. Bedroom seven is a generous double bedroom with dual-aspect double-glazed windows to the front and rear and a walk-in storage cupboard.
Externally to the front, there is ample parking for five vehicles, steps lead up to the property where there is a sun terrace/patio, there is a garage to the left of the property, and a metal gate provides access to sheltered access to the rear garden. The rear garden is mainly lawn enclosed by fencing and gated access to Ashfield Villas; this would be the access to the detached new-build.
Falmouth town is approximately 1 mile away and has a wide range of local and national retail outlets, pubs, bars, and restaurants. At the far end of the town is the National Maritime Museum and Event Square, and opposite the property is a park and green space for sports and walking. Sainsbury's and Lidl are situated close by and can easily be walked, too.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPCs)
An EPC is broadly like the labels provided with domestic appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines. Its purpose is to record how energy efficient a property is as a building. The certificate will provide a rating of the energy efficiency and carbon emissions of a building from A to G, where A is very efficient, and G is inefficient. The data required to allow the calculation of an EPC includes the age and construction of the building, its insulation and heating method. EPCs are produced using standard methods with standard assumptions about energy usage so that the energy efficiency of one building can easily be compared with another building of the same type. The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires that all buildings have an EPC when they are marketed for sale or for let, or when houses are newly built. EPCs are valid for 10 years, or until a newer EPC is prepared. During this period the EPC may be made available to buyers or new tenants.
