Melvill Road, Falmouth, TR11

THE PROPERTY

We very much like the Holm Oak development for its good design and remarkably convenient positioning. There are just 10 apartments here with number 6 being one of the largest. Communal areas are light, bright and spacious with level entrance from the car parking space and a lift enabling step free access to the apartment. St Mary’s Homes created aptly named Holm Oak in 2006 and we have enjoyed selling several of the properties here since, mindful of valuable attributes they provide. Number 6 is situated on the first floor from the front and second floor to the rear where it enjoys a pleasing and varied outlook over the Maritime Museum and Events Square into Falmouth harbour, along the town waterfront and across to Flushing. The 1031²ft apartment is unusually spacious, presenting three bedrooms, the main with en suite shower room. ‘Living’ space is excellent too, making this eminently suited as a permanent home, especially with its good storage and generous hallway. The dual aspect sitting/dining room has two sets of French doors, one to a Juliette balcony, the other on to a ‘proper’ balcony, looking towards the harbour. This rooms leads through a wide archway into an excellent fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. Number 6 has a designated parking space in addition to which there is visitor parking. The development appears to be professionally and well managed by Koti Property Management, telephone number where number 6 contributes a 12% share of the ongoing maintenance charge and owns an equal 1/10 share of the Freehold, vested in the Management Company and made up of the leaseholders. This is a great chance for a discerning buyer to secure something special in this privileged spot!

THE LOCATION

Holm Oak is wonderfully positioned toward the foot of Melvill Road within a 5-10 minutes’ walk to Falmouth seafront, harbourside and town. It’s a privileged and highly convenient spot with so much of what delights about Falmouth on ones’ doorstep with Events Square, the Princess Pavilion and glorious walks around Pendennis Castle and Point nearby. Falmouth is a wonderful place to live with a diverse selection of restaurants and an eclectic mixture of individual shops as well as national chains, together with quality galleries showcasing local talent. Nearby train stations (Falmouth Town and Docks) provide a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London, Paddington.
