The location Maritime House is an exclusive phase of wonderfully positioned water-fronting homes built as part of the development of Events Square, incorporating shops, restaurants and the Maritime Museum. The development is remarkably convenient with so much of what delights about Falmouth on one's doorstep. The town itself is a few paces away and nearer still a Tesco Express, invaluable as a corner shop. Varied restaurants neighbour Maritime House, these include Rick Stein, The Shed, The Ranch & Zizzi's to name but a few. Whilst located on the quayside and with the most interesting and engaging views available, access is discreet, via lift into an enclosed courtyard and private doorway to the apartment. Maritime House is a short walk to the town where there is 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. Events Square hosts activities and events throughout the year including Falmouth Classics, Falmouth Week and the Oyster and Sea Shanty Festivals. The nearby train station at Falmouth Docks provides a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London, Paddington. Falmouth's seafront and Southern side is half a mile away with some lovely sandy beaches and access onto the South West coastal paths. 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 boasts the third deepest natural harbour in the world and is renowned for its maritime facilities which offer some of the best boating and sailing opportunities in the country. Falmouth is consistently ranked as one of the top five places to live in the UK.
The property 14 Maritime House is an unusually spacious and special duplex apartment, equally suited for uplifting permanent living as well as holiday home ownership. Proportions are generous throughout with 3 good first floor bedrooms and a fourth/study on the lower 'living' level.

This penthouse apartment is comfortable, practical and of exceptional quality with its solid oak underfloor heating 'downstairs' and it's Oak doors and turning staircase.
