Set within the original phase of Packet Quays, this first‑floor corner flat occupies a prime quayline position with uninterrupted water views from the living room, kitchen and principal bedroom. Level access from a cobbled courtyard leads into a bright open-plan sitting/dining room with French doors to a balcony — ideal for morning coffee while watching boats and tides. Residents also benefit from communal waterside gardens, a slipway and dinghy store.
The apartment offers practical coastal features: two double bedrooms with built-in storage, a fitted kitchen, modern gas boiler, double glazing and a nearby single garage with electrics and plumbing. Historically successful as a long‑term rental, the property suits buyers seeking a main home, holiday base or an income opportunity in central Falmouth.
Physically the flat requires updating throughout; the kitchen and internal finishes need refurbishment to reach modern standards. As a quayline conversion there is potential for salt-related wear and damp in exposed areas — routine maintenance and appropriate coastal materials will be necessary. The EPC is rated D.
Practical ownership notes: the flat is leasehold (125 years from 1984) with a small annual ground rent and a current bi-annual service charge (approx. £2,144) covering maintenance and insurance. Council tax is above average. These running costs and the need for renovation should be factored into purchase plans alongside the strong waterside location and letting potential.
