5 Jackett Steps, The Packet Quays, Falmouth TR11

The property

Number 5 has been a much loved second home from home for its current owner whilst also being successfully holiday let. The apartment comes complete with a secure gated undercover parking space and use of the Packet Quays waterside garden and slipway, making it a fantastic proposition beside Falmouth’s High Street and harbourside.

The location

Jackett Steps is part of the acclaimed Packet Quays waterside development, located a few feet from the water’s edge, between The Royal Cornwall Yacht Club and Falmouth's High Street and shops. Its convenience and spectacular position make The Packet Quays, with its own residents’ slipway and waterside garden, much in demand for those requiring a permanent or holiday residence. So much of what delights about Falmouth is on one's doorstep here. The waterside is a few moments away as is the High Street with its shops and galleries, whilst The Boathouse, or more up-market Royal Cornwall Yacht Club and Greenbank Hotel are one's 'locals', and Falmouth's Marina is fifteen minutes' walk away. The town has a brilliant and diverse selection of restaurants and an eclectic mixture of shops, which include national chains together with quality galleries showcasing local talent. Falmouth's seafront, on the town's southern side, is about a mile away, with sandy beaches, Henry viii's Pendennis Castle and access to incredible walks and scenery along the Southwest Coastal Path. Nearby train stations (Falmouth Town) provide a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London, Paddington. Events Square and the National Maritime Museum are close by and regularly host activities throughout the year including Falmouth Classics, Falmouth Week and the Sea Shanty festival to name a few.
