THE PROPERTY
Number 6 Grove Place is an elegant Grade II listed double fronted Regency former town house, which was skillfully converted into apartments during 2005/2006. We were delighted to be instructed in their sale at the time, and remember how well they were received and how quickly they sold. The developer chose to keep Number 7, liking its top floor position and fantastic outlook and has enjoyed owning and renting it out since. Now Number 7 is for sale with no onward chain, freshly decorated and ready for its new owner and occupant. One’s access is the original fine main entrance at Number 6, up wide granite steps to the columned portico and front door. The broad staircase wends its way to the 3rd, top floor, servicing just two apartments, Number 6 & 7. There is brightness within where light is gathered front and back through large multipane sash windows. The ‘living’ room is superb; 20’ in length with a wonderfully engaging view, via two windows, into the harbour, over the slipway and Haven Marina and beyond to the Docks, Carrick Roads and Roseland Peninsular -brilliant! The kitchen is fitted in a stylish matt mid-blue with appliances built in. There is a shower room with a large shower cubicle. and the apartment has a quality floor, just laid throughout. It is difficult to picture a more convenient and involving location to live in Falmouth. Wholeheartedly recommended!
THE LOCATION
