5 bed end terrace house for sale

Penwerris Terrace, Falmouth TR11

A stunning, and quite remarkable, five-bedroom townhouse with panoramic views of Falmouth Harbour

This exquisite Georgian townhouse enjoys far-reaching views, from all of the front-facing rooms, across Falmouth Harbour to Flushing, Trefusis Point, and the Carrick Roads. Located centrally, yet in a quiet neighbourhood, on highly desirable Penwerris Terrace, just a couple of minutes’ walk to Greenbank beach and a short stroll to the Old High Street.

Recently the subject of an extensive, no-expense-spared restoration and modernisation, the property seamlessly combines refined period character with high-quality contemporary finishes—an increasingly rare and desirable blend.

Meticulously renovated in recent years, the house retains its original charm, including timber floorboards, panelled doors, sash windows, fireplaces, exposed stone walls, beams, window seats, shutters, staircases, and architraves, all thoughtfully preserved and enhanced. The result is a beautifully balanced home of immense style and integrity.

To be sold for only the second time in around 60 years, the elegant accommodation spans three spacious storeys, comprising five bedrooms and three reception rooms, all filled with natural light and character. The crowning feature is a vast loft room on the second floor, commanding some of the finest views in the area. This breath-taking space offers incredible versatility as bedroom or living accommodation, or even a self-contained annexe, subject to the necessary permissions.

To the rear, a private, south-west-facing garden is well established and beautifully kept, and features terraced lawns, dry stone walling, and well-stocked borders rising from a charming courtyard. An external WC and covered alfresco dining area/garden room add a further social space and convenience. Beyond the rear garden is a recently installed off-street parking area for two or three cars.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional period home in one of Falmouth’s most picturesque and sought-after settings
