GENERAL REMARKS AND LOCATION

Tregladen has been the cherished home of the current owner since originally built in the late 1950's. It occupies a good-sized rectangular plot fronting Carlidnack Road right in the heart of Mawan Smith and within level walk of most village facilities. It also enjoys an open outlook with views to the farmland bordering the village and across the countryside to the Helford estuary in the distance.The bungalow is detached and affords 2 double bedrooms, bathroom, sitting room, dining room, small kitchen and with porches to the front and rear. Whilst ideal for anyone seeking an easy-to-run retirement home the property may well appeal to those wanting to extend or remodel the building, subject to obtaining any necessary planning consent. It offers tremendous potential.There are a number of amenities within the village including the thatched Red Lion pub, garage, village hall, coffee shop, village store church, junior school and regular bus service to Falmouth which is about 5 miles away. The area abounds with beautiful rural and creekside walks and especially along the nearby Helford River and South West Coast Path. The gardens of Trebah and adjacent Glendurgan are both about a mile up the road on the edge of the village.
