Description
WATERS EDGE DEVELOPMENT Welcome to Waters Edge, a small and exclusive waterside development of five bright and spacious apartments and two luxury detached houses with rare and exciting direct communal access to the gently ebbing and flowing waters of Penryn River. Each stunning high-specification property is designed to be dual aspect, with its own private and spacious balcony or terrace. From here, you can take in the inspirational views out over the marina towards Trevissome, Penryn and countryside beyond. The superb North Parade, location is minutes from Falmouth town centre and the beaches are easily accessible when entering the town by road. It is also one of very few in Falmouth with water frontage and direct access to the water. Given the town owes its existence to being the third deepest natural harbour in the world, residential access to the water is a surprisingly unusual and special feature. Drawn up by award winning architect Adam Parsons, every detail of Waters Edge has been carefully considered. From high-quality material selection to the intricate design to the appliances and technology used to deliver homes with advanced energy-saving features and a strong environmental focus. FALMOUTH LIFE Beautiful, historic Falmouth is one of the most desirable places to live or holiday in the UK. The town is full of independent shops and galleries set alongside highly rated restaurants, cafes and pubs that give local people and tourists a seemingly endless range of exciting options to experiment with. The town is most famous for its connections to the sea, with its deep natural harbour, boatyards and sailing heritage still drawing people from across Cornwall and far beyond. Whether you love sailing for sport or pleasure, Falmouth offers some of the best waters you will find. Falmouth itself is still a thriving harbour, but its also an excellent place to live. Two local primaries and one local secondary school are highly rated. Falmouth University is regularly named the UK’s best art university and is also well-regarded for its industry links. Away from the waterfront, you’ll find glorious green spaces rubbing shoulders with artisanal shops, brightly painted townhouses, and subtropical plant species brought back when Falmouth was Great Britain’s link to the rest of the world. Buzzing with live music and evening entertainment, the red arrow displays along the seafront, Sea Shanty festival, Oyster festival and further events annually are highly encouraged to attend. Close to several golden beaches, and with a laid back, positive sense of community, Falmouth life is one that many people love living in.

PLACES TO VISIT From your front door at Waters Edge, Falmouth offers golden sands and coastal beaty aplenty to explore, as well as dynamic range of other places to discover and things to do. Blue flag-winning Gyllyngvase Beach and its delightful café are only a few minutes walk from town, as is the smaller but intriguing Castle Beach. Swanpool and Maenporth beaches are either a short drive or longer cliff path walk away, giving you a wonderful variety of incredible views and waterside amenities between them. Choose between the many places to swim, snorkel, sail, windsurf, or kayak nearby. Or strap on your board for the short trips to the renowned surfing beaches at Porthtowan, Perranporth, and Newquay. For a more relaxing journey by water, hop on a local ferry from Prince of Wales Pier in Falmouth’s inner Harbour across the beautiful Penryn River to the quaint village of Flushing or to St Mawes on the Roseland Peninsula. You can also putter down the many picturesque creeks of the Helford River or down the River Fal as far as Truro. Take a break from the sea to explore Falmouth’s amazing green spaces. Gyllyngdune Gardens is a multiple award-winner, but the lesser-known Fox Rosehill and Queen Mary Gardens are beautiful places to spend an afternoon or three. You also have Trelissick, Glendurgan, and Trebah – a mix of gardens and National Trust properties – short distances away. Engage with Falmouth’s rich maritime history by visiting the 16th-century fortress at Pendennis Castle or the National Maritime Museum in the famous Harbour and Falmouth Marina. If you’re an art lover, experience one of the greatest collections in the southwest at Falmouth Art Gallery or the many smaller galleries driven by Falmouth’s strong connection with arts. With such variety and the town’s own vibrant local culture, it’s no surprise that Falmouth is repeatedly voted one of the best places Coastal Towns to live in the UK.
