To be sold for the first time since its construction c. 1955, by and for the present owner, a detached, individual, dormer-style bungalow, providing 4 bedroom accommodation, ideal for those prospective purchasers seeking a renovation/refurbishment 'project'. Set centrally within its own grounds which extend to approximately .65 of an acre, adjacent to open countryside and within less than 1 mile from the sought-after, well served, creekside village of Mylor Bridge. The sailing waters of the Carrick Roads, university campus at Tremough, port of Falmouth and cathedral city of Truro are therefore also within easy reach.

The Property - 'Treetops' was built and occupied by and for our clients circa 1955.

Nearby walks lead to Restronguet Creek, the Pandora Inn and village of Mylor Bridge whose excellent day-to-day amenities include a highly regarded county primary school, doctors surgery, church, hairdressers, newsagent, general stores, butchers and public house. Mylor Yacht Harbour, Cornwall's preeminent boating location, is just over three miles away; Tremough campus is less than four miles, the port of Falmouth can be reached in less than fifteen minutes, and the city of Truro within twenty minutes (traffic allowing).
