Queen Mary Road, Falmouth

THE PROPERTY Heather and Lay were delighted to market and sell this exclusive development from new in 2012 and we consider Queen Mary House outstanding in terms of its position, design and execution. Over the past year the current owner has updated almost every aspect of the apartment and attention to detail and quality of finish is evident wherever one may look. The new kitchen is both stylish, modern and practical and with a sea view. On the lower floor there is a large open plan living area with stunning views across Queen Mary Gardens, Gyllyngvase beach and out to sea. Just off of the living room is a balcony large enough to sit and enjoy a breakfast or dinner whilst enjoying the vista. Also on the lower floor there is a bedroom with a side balcony. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the master having the benefit of en-suite facilities. Parking is to the rear in a large carport where storage above is a handy addition. The apartment is accessed via stairs or lift and benefits from an allocated, covered car parking space. No onward chain and viewing highly recommended. THE LOCATION Queen Mary House occupies an amazing position overlooking Queen Mary Gardens beside Gyllyngvase Beach and with stunning views out to sea. Falmouth Bay faces south and has a reputation for its temperate climate and lovely surroundings. The bay boasts a number of beaches from the more secluded 'Castle' Beach to 'Tunnel' and of course Gyllyngvase, Falmouth's most popular beach which is virtually on the threshold of Queen Mary House. The activity around Gyllyngvase captures a good deal of custom with the chic Gylly Beach Café overlooking the beach and sea. Queen Mary House is just behind the coastal path which facilitates the very popular scenic walks around the famous Pendennis Headland, passing the fascinating Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII in the 1540s to protect England from France and Spain. From Gyllyngvase, to the south, a short walk takes you to yet another safe swimming beach, Swanpool, flanked by a fresh water lake, a well known haven for migrant marine birds. A stroll along Falmouth’s south facing sea front can provide a mixture of exciting experiences - savour an exciting meal from one of the regarded quality hotels or take advantage of the spa, gymnasium and swimming facilities. Alternatively, enjoy the buzz of Gyllyngvase Beach Cafe or take a swim at the more intimate Castle Beach - there is so much on offer. Whether visiting the Maritime Museum or simply walking into town, Queen Mary House is ideally placed to take advantage of all the area has to offer. Falmouth is a resort for all seasons, renowned as one of the world’s great water sporting centres, boasting some of Europe's most regarded sailing waters with its hidden coves and sheltered estuaries. This historical town presents a fascinating mix of charming individual boutiques and well known chains and high street names and Queen Mary House is ideally placed to take advantage of all the areas has to offer.
