4 bed detached house for sale

Emslie Road, Falmouth TR11

The property

This individual detached, non estate house was built in the 1980s in what is a privileged position beside and to the rear of The Royal Duchy Hotel. The spot is wonderful where one is just 100 yards from Cliff Road and the seafront, with first floor views looking out over Falmouth Bay. Ashley House lies in a level and enclosed plot, with gateway to plenty of off-road parking space. The property is spacious and functional within, providing two bedrooms downstairs and two upstairs, the main room with ensuite shower room. The generous living room is located on the first floor to take advantage of lovely sea views, sliding patio doors which access a superb balconied terrace to enjoy the glorious outlook and summer sunshine for much of the day. The hallway is an impressive feature with its fine, concrete spiral staircase and internal access to the integral single garage. Ashley House presents a great opportunity to create a fine home in this enviable location, whether modernising to live in ‘as is’ or perhaps reconfiguring to owners’ requirements.

The location

Ashley House lies on Emslie Road, a prime residential address located on Falmouth's favoured southern side, just moments from beaches, the seafront and fabulous coastal walks. The town and harbour are just 1 mile away making this a wonderfully convenient, as well as an involving and uplifting area of Falmouth in which to live. Ashley House’s location is a few minutes’ walk to Castle and Gyllyngvase beach and café, and the extensive seafront promenade towards Pendennis Castle, passing Queen Mary Gardens and the Princess Pavilion. Nearby and opposite Gyllyngvase beach, is the excellent and invaluable ‘early ‘til late’ Co-op convenience store. The town and its harbourside have an excellent and diverse selection of restaurants and an eclectic mixture of individual shops as well as national chains, together with quality galleries showcasing local talent. Nearby train stations (Falmouth Town and Penmere Halt) provide a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London, Paddington.There are five primary schools and one secondary school in the town and another in Penryn as well as highly regarded independent preparatory and senior schools in Truro. Falmouth is a wonderful place to live and is renowned for its maritime facilities which offer some of the best boating and sailing opportunities in the country
