Grove Place, Falmouth, TR11

THE PROPERTY

Number 5 Grove Place is an elegant double fronted grade II listed Regency former town house, which has been skilfully converted into apartments. The apartment is accessed via the original, fine, main entrance up wide granite steps to the columned portico and front door. The broad staircase takes you up a single flight of stairs, past a tall sash window flooding the area with natural light, to number 3. There is brightness within where light is gathered through a large multipane sash window to the front, with fantastic views over Pendennis marina, flushing and the Carrick Roads beyond. The kitchen/dining/living room is superb with the wonderfully engaging view, plenty of light, high ceilings and a well proportioned room make it a lovely space to spend time. The bedroom is, again, well proportioned with high ceilings and a lovely sash window making for another fantastic room. The building also has a handy communal outside space to the rear giving you a place to sit out in the sun on those summer days. It is difficult to picture a more convenient and involving location to live in Falmouth. Wholeheartedly recommended.
