This contemporary one-bedroom apartment sits on the second floor of a coastal development overlooking Gyllyngvase Beach (30 metres) in Falmouth, offering couples a seaside retreat just steps from the soft sand of the bay. The building draws inspiration from coastal cruise liners, set right next to the ocean and surrounded by sub-tropical gardens. The calm swell and gently curving shoreline of the beach, with its glassy, clear water, make this stretch of coast a wonderful spot to unwind.
Inside, the light and spacious open-plan living, kitchen and dining area enjoys ocean views, with a two-seater velvet sofa and matching footstool, a 55-inch TV with Netflix, and coastal artwork. Sliding patio doors lead out to the balcony. The fully equipped kitchen includes an electric oven, induction hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, wine fridge and coffee machine, while a utility cupboard houses a washer/dryer. The dining space has a table with two chairs. In the master bedroom, a super-king-size bed is complemented by a large open wardrobe with hanging rail and two bedside tables, with sliding doors also opening onto the balcony. The bathroom features a shower over the bath, a heated towel rail, and a WC. Underfloor heating runs throughout, and lift access is available. Outside, the balcony looks across the beach and Pendennis Point, furnished with a rattan bistro table, two chairs and a wooden sofa with waterproof cushions. An allocated parking space for one car is provided.
A short stroll into Falmouth town reveals streets lined with quirky independent shops and eateries serving fresh local food. The surrounding coastline can be explored on foot, leading to further unspoiled coves and turquoise sea. The gardens and castle views at Pendennis Point (1 mile) are within easy reach, and a ferry from Falmouth Harbour crosses the water to the beautifully quaint Roseland Peninsula. Water sports such as stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking can be enjoyed on the nearby beaches, with equipment available to hire. The National Maritime Museum is also close by (1 mile).
