Ref: LCAA8267 Offers around £350,000 Sunrise Cottage, 33 Comfort Road, Mylor Bridge, Cornwall, TR11 5SE FREEHOLD An attractive, detached, 3 bedroomed farmhouse requiring modernisation but with planning permission to extend, set in a tucked away garden plot with easy access to the centre of the sought after creekside village between Truro and Falmouth. 2 Ref: LCAA8267 SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: entrance hall, cloakroom, sitting/dining room, conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, snug/study. First Floor: master bedroom with en-suite dressing area and en-suite bathroom. 2 further double bedrooms, family shower room. Outside: access is initially via a shared turning area with the building plot adjacent to it which will then provide access to two designated parking spaces at a high level in the back garden of Sunrise Cottage. Steps will then descend to the house and the gardens which have mature side boundaries and a new fenced boundary will need to be installed at the front, at the purchasers expense, to divide Sunrise Cottage from the garage area. DESCRIPTION An attractive detached period cottage requiring complete modernisation, occupying a delightful semi mature garden plot in the lovely tucked away position, close to the centre of this sought after creekside village between Truro and Falmouth. This charming period cottage has planning permission granted for an extension to the main residence to demolish a single storey side extension and add a two storey extension to increase the accommodation to four bedrooms (two en-suite), two large reception rooms and three bath/shower rooms in all. Sunrise Cottage will be approached through the close which is a side road off Cogos Park where access will initially be over a shared turning area between it and the new house that 3 Ref: LCAA8267 is due to be built on the garden plot above it. Both properties will have access to two designated parking spaces within their own freehold. Steps will descend from the parking spaces down to Sunrise Cottage where a retaining wall will be constructed by the purchasers of the building plot above. This is the perfect opportunity to breath new life into a desirable older residence. With the extensions complete and modernisation and reorganisation of the internal layout complete, there is certainly room to push the price into a higher range. LOCATION Sunrise Cottage is approached from a small side close off Cogos Park which is a small and sought after development near the centre of the village. The property is a short walk from the village centre facilities which include a general store, primary school, public house, hairdresser, butchers, boatyard and a recreation ground. Mylor Bridge is popular not only for its excellent village facilities and community spirit but also for the surrounding beautiful countryside and the proximity to sailing facilities. Small boats can navigate Mylor Creek and some of the best deep water moorings facilities are found at the entrance to the creek at Mylor Churchtown where there are sheltered moorings and pontoon berths with a first rate boatyard and excellent yacht club. Mylor Bridge is also popular due to being situated between the bustling port and harbour town of Falmouth and the city of Truro (Cornwall’s capital). These two offer some of the widest array of amenities available in Cornwall including a full range of national and local retailers, supermarkets, excellent transport links and both private and state schooling. Truro has a mainline station providing a direct link to London Paddington with approximate travel time of 4½ hours and there are excellent links from this area out to the A30 which then remains largely dual carriageway all the way northwards to Exeter where it joins with the national motorway network. To the northwest lies Cornwall Airport Newquay which provides daily shuttle flights to UK and some European destinations. For sailing and pleasure craft enthusiasts, Mylor Creek connects to the Carrick Roads which is the main estuary water of the River Fal and its tributaries. The Carrick Roads is a large open expanse of sheltered water providing some of the best day sailing in the country. Both Falmouth and the surrounding creeks have an excellent array of boating facilities and the surrounding creeks and rivers provide a perfect pottering, playground to be explored on foot or by boat.
