OVERVIEW

Number 2 Queen Mary Court occupies one of the most privileged positions on Falmouth’s beautiful seafront. This small and exclusive development of just nine properties sits directly above Gyllyngvase Beach, with uninterrupted views stretching from Pendennis Point and Castle, across the mouth of the Fal Estuary, to St Anthony Headland and out into open sea.

Built in the mid-1980s, the house has been comprehensively remodelled and upgraded in recent years, creating a light-filled, versatile home designed for contemporary coastal living. The location combines privacy and security with the convenience of being moments from the beach and a short walk from the town centre.

THE ACCOMMODATION

The layout spans three floors, offering flexibility for both permanent and second-home use.

Ground floor: Entrance hall, shower room (ideal after a swim), utility/laundry room, and a sitting room which could serve as a home office or occasional fourth bedroom.

First floor: A striking open-plan living area with defined kitchen, dining and sitting zones. The bespoke Treyone kitchen features premium finishes and generous workspaces. Large glazed doors open to a sea-facing balcony, perfect for outdoor dining and watching the changing light over the bay.

Second floor: Three bedrooms, two with direct sea views, and a 'jack and jill' family bath/shower room with contemporary fittings.

Every principal room enjoys sweeping views over the landscaped communal gardens, the adjoining Queen Mary Gardens, the beach, Falmouth Bay and the open sea beyond.

OUTSIDE SPACE AND GROUNDS

Residents share almost two acres of landscaped grounds, with multiple seating areas, lawns, and a children’s play space. The vast grounds directly border the South West Coast Path, placing Gyllyngvase and Swanpool beaches, nearby coves and headlands within easy reach.

Practicalities include an integral garage, driveway parking for two vehicles, and additional visitor spaces.

LOCATION
Queen Mary Court is adjacent to the sub-tropical Queen Mary Gardens and just steps from Gylly Beach Café. The South West Coast Path offers walks to Swanpool, Maenporth and the Helford River in one direction, and to Castle Beach and Pendennis Point in the other. Falmouth town centre is about a 15-minute walk, with its independent shops, galleries, restaurants, bars, National Maritime Museum, sailing facilities and multi-screen cinema.

A rare chance to secure a modernised coastal home in one of Cornwall’s most coveted waterfront settings — equally suited to year-round living or as a low-maintenance seaside retreat.
