THE LOCATION Plas Meudon is located along the coastal road between Falmouth, Mawnan Smith and the Helford River. The position is outstanding, set centrally within its established

good-sized garden with great views to Falmouth bay and coast.

Plas Meudon is about 1.5 miles from Mawnan Smith village, 3 miles from Helford Passage and just a few hundred metres from the lovely sandy Maenporth beach and

excellent Cove restaurant.

Mawnan itself has good local amenities which include a well rated primary school, beautiful Norman Church, the 17th century Red Lion pub and a general store with Post

Office. The village square has a restaurant and small selection of shops whilst "The Old Smithy", with resident blacksmith, shows local arts and crafts. 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 and 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, is a truly beautiful place to visit and in which to reside. 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. Falmouth often

plays host as the start and/or finish line to many international sailing races including that of the famous Tall Ships.

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 unquestionably one of

the country's favourite locations.

The house itself is comfortably proportioned with four bedrooms (three of which are sea

facing) and three living rooms, plus a conservatory and sociable family kitchen. The hallway is

impressive with its solid wooden floor, porthole window and fine turning staircase. All is

practical and considered with separate shower and bathrooms plus a cloakroom/WC, large

utility room and much storage space throughout. Windows are 'Everest' double glazed and an

oil-fired boiler fuels radiator central heating and hot water supply. The 90' (27.43m) long rear

terrace is an accessed from the kitchen, conservatory and dining room and is a fabulous space

for relaxation and enjoyment, overlooking the garden and sea.

There are lawns, a 35' (10.67m) diameter pond, many mature shrubs, a produce area as well

as a more natural garden carpeted with wildflowers.

Twin entrances and a circular drive provides plenty of parking space, leading to a superb slate

pitch roofed double garage, built oversize and spec for an engineer and motorsport enthusiast

with toys. A further high entrance garage has doors at each end and a 'pull through' facility if

required.

This is undoubtedly a wonderful chance for the discerning (and very fortunate!) home hunter

to own a 'complete' and immensely appealing house in this great position.

THE PROPERTY

This superb house was cavity brick built in 1928 for the then master of Mawnan Smith School. Since then it has been sold only once, with the current owners fine

tuning it to their requirements and living here very happily for many years. Plas Meudon has a quality and many features which set it aside as an outstanding home. It

lies perfectly positioned within the loveliest of gardens which have evolved and established beautifully over the last 90 odd years.
