3 Bedroom Detached House, Shute Hill, Mawnan Smith, TR11

THE PROPERTY

Shute Hill has been a much loved home to its current owners who have improved and expanded it during their 13 years in residence. Most notably, a superb conservatory was added to the rear of the living room with multi-folding oak and glazed doors between, allowing enclosure or opening, to suit. At the same time, a utility room was built beside the kitchen. This is a superb detached house with excellent proportions and standards of presentation. ‘Living’ space is generous with a sociable 18ft long kitchen/dining room in addition to the sitting room and conservatory. There are three bedrooms the main measuring a healthy 19ft in length.

THE LOCATION

Shute Hill is a popular development built by respected SNW Homes on the outskirts of Mawnan village. The village is about 1.5 miles from Helford Passage and the river. Mawnan itself has good local amenities which include a highly rated primary school, beautiful Norman Church, the 17th century Red Lion pub and a general store, garage and doctors' surgery. The village hall also holds regular events throughout the year and is home to a wide variety of village groups. There are cricket, football and bowling clubs in the village. There is also a coffee shop and an electrical shop/contractor. The mobile Post Office visits every Tuesday morning. The village square has a coffee shop and small selection of businesses. The “Old Smithy” workshops have a working blacksmith and other artisans/craftspeople. Areas of coastline and countryside surrounding the village are arguably amongst some the finest found in Cornwall. Mawnan is also home to Trebah Garden, one of the Great Gardens of Cornwall, rated among the 80 finest gardens in the world and Glendurgan Garden, owned by the National Trust, with its intriguing cherry laurel maze. Falmouth, about four miles away and is accessed by a regular bus service. With its proximity to sheltered as well as unsheltered waters, Falmouth has long been a popular boating and water sports location; it boasts the world's third largest deep-water harbour and is the country's first and last major port. Sandy, south facing beaches, fine restaurants and bars, art galleries and shops prove to be a constant lure for those seeking a warmer and more refined way of life. This, combined with the peace and tranquillity that the magnificent surrounding countryside and coastline has to offer, makes Falmouth and this area in particular, unquestionably one of the country's favourite locations.
