Description

A substantial, detached, modern ‘country house’, originating c. 1921, remodelled, dramatically extended and fully reappointed in 2014, now providing exceptionally spacious, superbly appointed and highly versatile accommodation, set within glorious, gated, gardens and grounds of 2.15 acres, enjoying panoramic views to Falmouth Harbour, the Carrick Roads and miles of surrounding countryside.

The Property

Understood to have been constructed circa 1921, ‘Boswin’ has been the subject, since 2014, of a massive, comprehensive, no expense spared programme of extension and improvement works to create what is, undoubtedly, one of the area’s finest individual homes.

‘State of the art’ fittings are included throughout with electric vehicle charging point, biomass heating to the main house, supplemented by solar panelling, and air source heating for the annexe. All main reception rooms open directly onto extensive, wrap-around terracing, with most bedrooms also enjoying the magnificent, panoramic, far-reaching views, 3 of which open directly onto a glass-fronted balcony.

A detached annexe benefits from its own independent access with supplementary parking area and is ideal for those with a dependent relative and visiting friends etc. The leisure room features a heated ‘resistance’ pool with space for gym equipment etc, and the large, detached double garage/workshop, built of cavity block construction, provides great scope for further uses, subject to all necessary consents. Extensive parking is provided for many vehicles, ideal therefore for those with caravans and boats etc.

The Gardens And Grounds

These, quite frankly, are outstanding!, extending to 2.15 acres, the owners, as with the house, having undertaken all works regardless of cost.

A gated entrance opens onto a circular gravelled driveway which provides direct, easy and level access to the accommodation and garaging. Beautifully stocked borders contain a mass of flowering shrubs and specimen trees including rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias, hydrangeas and acers etc. Sweeping and beautifully kept lawns gently slope to the front boundary, and an extensive limestone wrap-around terrace is ideal for entertaining, with doors opening from all main reception rooms. The kitchen garden contains a polytunnel, fruit bushes, raised planters, and an orchard, with a mass of produce including potatoes, onions and all manner of other vegetables, melons, tomatoes and an abundance of other fruits - perfect for those seeking a high degree of organic self-sufficiency.
