Description
This spacious waterfront apartment in the sought-after Packet Quays development offers privacy, convenience, and stunning harbour views, just moments from Falmouth’s vibrant High Street with direct access to the town centre above and the water’s edge below. With its own private entrance, the bright living and dining area opens onto a waterfront balcony. There are three bedrooms, including a main bedroom with en-suite, and two additional bedrooms both with built in wardrobes. There is allocated parking, a real bonus in this central location. Vacant and ready to move into, this rare waterfront home is perfect as a permanent residence, a coastal getaway, or a smart investment, all within easy reach of beaches, shops, cafés, and transport links.
The Location – This apartment is located in the popular Packet Quays complex, enjoying a discreet yet highly convenient setting right in the heart of vibrant Falmouth. Tucked away off the main streets, it offers a surprising sense of peace while being just moments from the town’s bustling centre, with its mix of independent shops, cafés, and restaurants along the High Street, all within a 5-minute walk.

Falmouth Town railway station is less than half a mile away, offering connections to Truro and beyond, while regular bus services run along nearby Grove Place and The Moor, making getting around straightforward.
