The apartments


The apartments are individual with each offering something unique. The ground floor benefitting from a large open plan living space and a south facing private garden; the first floor has a balcony terrace with master bedroom and en-suite; the penthouse offers sky lights providing plenty of natural light and a Juliet balcony offering stunning views across Falmouth Bay. Quality has not been spared in the Victorian building conversion, including a new slate roof, repointing and rendering, high levels of sound proofing and cavity wall insulation. Internally the living areas are fitted with engineered oak flooring with underfloor heating, kitchen units in a Clerkenwell Sandstone, oak worktop surfaces and integrated Bosch appliances. The bathrooms offer a contemporary finish including Porcelain tiled walls and flooring in a Mokara white and Gaillo grey and Cottleforte taps. An allocated parking space is provided for each apartment with fitted electric vehicle charging points and visitor parking available.
The location


Centrally located and close to all that Falmouth offers, Rosehill Place is situated next to the historic Fox Rosehill Gardens. This peaceful subtropical space, the legacy of the Fox family who also created nearby Glendurgan and Trebah, is believed to be the first subtropical gardens in the UK. Step outside the front door and enjoy a morning stroll amongst the exotic plants and Cornish palms or within a five-minute walk you can be at Gyllyngvase Beach and enjoy breakfast at Gylly Beach Café or a sea dip followed by a session in Kiln Sauna on the sand. A ten-minute walk in the other direction takes you to Swanpool Beach, the coastal footpath and nature reserve to feed the swans. Rosehill Place is also perfectly positioned for Falmouth Town. Events Square and the National Maritime Museum where you’ll find lots of independent shops and restaurants which are a 5 min walk away, with transport links via bus and ferry, as well as an array of artisan cafes, shops and Falmouth Art Gallery is only 10 mins.

We would argue that this is one of the best locations in Falmouth, being close to no less than 3 beaches, Pendennis Point, Pendennis Castle, the harbour, the gardens, the town, a nursery and primary school as well as Falmouth University all on your doorstep. Not to mention The Princess Pavilion which is only a few minutes away for a delicious Sunday roast or live music and culture. You would never need to leave Falmouth with so much to see and do – but if you did decide to leave, you’re also walking distance from a train station that will take you straight to Truro. Locations don’t get better than this!
The development


Bordered by beautiful beech, sycamore and oak trees, this collection of high quality, meticulously crafted properties have been built by local company Fox Construction Solutions and brought to you by Arbenneck Developments in association with Heather & Lay. Comprising three houses and three apartments set in a beautifully restored Victorian house and grounds, with a high specification suited to modern living and contemporary luxury. The properties come with a dedicated parking space (there is also designated visitor parking) and every home features oak doors and staircases, double glazed powder coated aluminium windows and doors, engineered oak flooring, German appliances, quality fitted kitchens and open plan living.

A 10-year warranty is provided by Build Zone and each unit offers something different – from a private balcony or a secluded garden to enjoy as the sun sets, to beautiful views over Falmouth Bay. Although each one has been designed with contemporary style and comfort in common, these small touches give the different properties a unique personality. We are pleased to be partnering with Arbenneck Developments as the agent of choice for this prestigious development as Rosehill Place.
