Property description
The property
Constructed circa 1972, Harbour Court is an extremely popular small development, most conveniently positioned for Falmouth town centre and harbourside, benefiting, as the name implies, from harbour views, from the rear elevation, over the constant marine activity within Falmouth's inner harbour, from Trefusis Point to the National Maritime Museum, Pendennis Castle, port area and deep sailing waters of the Fal Estuary, and shoreline of The Roseland peninsula beyond.
Flat 2b occupies a second floor position, benefiting from much natural light with windows to all four elevations. The entrance hall features wood block flooring and a view to the harbour and Maritime Museum; a well proportioned double aspect living room has the benefit of a sliding patio door and step-out balcony, both the kitchen and shower room have been refitted, and both bedrooms are double in size.
Unusually, the property also benefits from a good sized garage with electronic up-and-over door and additional workshop, ideal for the storage of bikes and sailing equipment etc.

The parish church is just 100 yards away, to the side of which a footpath leads directly into the town centre, with its excellent range of shops, commercial and leisure amenities. Nearby Quay Hill leads onto picturesque Customs House Quay, with its quayside bars, visitors pontoon, leisure and fishing boats; beyond which lies the Events Square, National Maritime Museum, seafront and beaches.
