Situated in this small and highly exclusive development of just 3, substantial, individual and superbly appointed apartments, enjoying panoramic views from the rear elevation and private gardens over the town and harbour to Flushing, surrounding countryside, the deep sailing waters of the Fal Estuary and shoreline of The Roseland Peninsula. Providing 2697 ft sq of light and extremely versatile 4 bedroom, 2 bath/shower room, 3/4 reception room accommodation and a particularly large, private rear garden area whose low-maintenance landscaping further adds to the attraction to those prospective purchasers wanting minimal maintenance.

The Property - 'The Oceanic' is a substantial 'landmark' building which occupies a commanding and prominent position on the junction of Lansdowne and Melvill Roads, at one of the highest points of this highly sought-after area of Falmouth, where the isthmus is at its narrowest.

Formerly a hotel, the property was extensively modernised and remodelled approximately ten years ago, with planning permission having been granted in December 2021 for the creation of, what are, now, three of Falmouth's largest, best specified and highly individual homes, which all benefit from parking, private garden areas and, from the rear, panoramic, elevated and ever-changing views over the town and harbour to Greenbank, Flushing, Trefusis Headland, the deep sailing waters of the Fal Estuary, and shoreline of The Roseland Peninsula.

Specification - 'The Oceanic' is now approaching the final stages of conversion with the extensive works including:-
.New roof in natural slate
.Complete external redecoration
.The creation of three separate 'private garden' areas
.The provision of an allocated parking space for each apartment, together with a visitors space
.Massive internal remodelling to produce the three highly individual homes
.The installation of three separate high-efficiency boilers together with independent pressurised hot water systems
.Under-floor heating throughout
.The installation of three brand new kitchens with Samsung appliances and compressed laminate worktops
.Complete internal redecoration
.The fitting of new floor coverings throughout each of the apartments

In addition, all properties are fully double glazed, much internal joinery is oak, light fittings and high quality curtains are included, and in most instances furniture is available if required, subject to negotiation.

This apartment is now available with immediate vacant possession, with completion scheduled for the end of 2022.

The Accommodation - Direct, level and easy access from the communal porch and foyer, with private entrance lobby opening into an extremely deep, split level hallway with cloakroom/WC, turning staircase leading to the first floor, and part glazed door opening onto the rear gardens with the views to the harbour and Trefusis Headland beyond. The lounge is positioned at the front of the building with a sunny south-facing bay window and deep archway into a separate dining room which, again, faces south. The kitchen/breakfast room has a feature central island unit, two windows to the side elevation and, from an inner lobby, door to a good sized, well appointed utility room. To the rear of the inner hall, there is a 'snug', ideal as a library or TV area etc. An office features fabulous views over the town and harbour, and a door with staircase leads to a basement/wine cellar.

Upstairs, there is a large bay-fronted bedroom to the front elevation, double bedroom with superb town and harbour views to the rear, further double with bay window to the front, family shower room, and door to the master bedroom which features an extremely spacious private bath/shower room with four-piece suite and further town and harbour views.

The dimensions of the main rooms are as follows:-

The Outside - Duplex Apartment 2 features a particularly large rear garden area which is well enclosed by timber fencing, enjoys the all day sun and the fabulous town, harbour and estuary views. An upper terrace provides direct access from the living accommodation with steps down to a large gravelled area, 'lawn' in astroturf, gravelled border with mature shrubs, and decked sun terrace.

Parking area to the front of the building, adjacent to which there is a gravelled garden with fan palm. A visitors space for the development is also provided.

The Location - There are few positions in Falmouth which offer such expansive views of the town, harbour and estuary, combined with such close proximity to the seafront in one direction, and the town centre and harbourside in the other.

Castle Beach and the seafront (Cliff Road) is just 350 yards away, with the properties enjoying, 'on their doorstep', the beautiful circular walk around Pendennis Point with its views across the mouth of the estuary to St Mawes, the mouth of the Percuil River and St Anthony's Headland, and across the breadth of Falmouth Bay to Swanpool, Maenporth, the mouth of the Helford, and shoreline of The Lizard Peninsula - one of the country's most spectacular views.

A level walk along the seafront leads to the sandy bathing beach at Gyllyngvase, home of Gylly Beach Café, behind which is Queen Mary Gardens, one of Falmouth's numerous sub-tropical public gardens, beyond which the South West Coast Path continues to Swanpool, Maenporth and beyond.

Public transport facilities are just a stone's throw away, with a regular bus service opposite Lansdowne Road providing easy access around and out of the town, in addition to which railway halts at the foot of Lansdowne and Melvill Roads, provide regular, direct and easy access to the university at Penryn and the cathedral city of Truro, the county's administrative, commercial, retailing, health and educational centre.

Events Square, just a seven minute walk away, provides a number of bars, restaurants and convenience store, as well as the National Maritime Museum, one of the county's foremost attractions. Sailing and dinghy launching facilities are accessible from the public slipway next door to Events Square, beyond which Arwenack and Church Streets lead directly into the town centre, with its abundance of shops, leisure amenities and points of access onto and around the harbour, such as Customs House Quay and Prince of Wales Pier, from where picturesque ferry rides lead to Flushing, St Mawes, Trelissick and Truro.

In all, a location which, anywhere in the county, is difficult to better.
