THE PROPERTY
We have known and admired 1 Claremont Terrace for many years having sold it to old friends back in 1997. This fine mid Victorian terrace is bookended by distinctive Dutch gable townhouses, Number 1 being a particularly attractive example and an unusual, if not unique, design for Falmouth. Accommodation is over three floors, with wide bay windows on the ground and first levels and that stylish and original arched window and Dutch gable with parapets on the top floor. Commanding harbour, estuary and coastal views are enjoyed from all storeys, where they are breathtakingly good from the first and second levels. This is an outstanding town house with a size, flexibility and charm one seldom sees. It is comfortable ‘as is’ and much money has been spent in recent years but the house would benefit from modernisation and uplifting in part, with such scope to adapt and use the accommodation to an owners’ requirements. The first floor, bay window dual aspect harbour facing room is a standout feature, making a fantastic ‘living’ room or uplifting master bedroom with French doors to a little balcony. Used conventionally with harbour view sitting room, separate dining room, kitchen/dining room and garden/breakfast room on the ground floor, number 1 still has up to four bedrooms, including the attic bedroom. The first floor rear of Number 1 has been used as a self-contained area with vaulted ceiling bed/living room and its own separate access. Of course, this space can be incorporated into the main house, if preferred. Outside, to the rear, is a sizeable, enclosed garden that faces South and West with rear Lane access to provide parking space for two/three cars. This is an absolute gem and a real ‘find’ for the right buyer appreciative of how special it is.
THE LOCATION
Claremont Terrace is one of Falmouth’s most desirable places to live, set up high above town and harbourside with fantastic views and just a few minutes walk to the High Street and water’s edge. The nearby Boathouse, Star & Garter or more up market Royal Cornwall Yacht Club or Greenbank Hotel are ones’ ‘locals’ while the town has a brilliant and diverse selection of restaurants, bakeries and bars 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 and Penmere Halt) provide a convenient link to the mainline at Truro for Exeter and London, Paddington. Falmouth Docks are a major contributor to the town's economy and along with Falmouth University (with campuses in Falmouth and Penryn) and Falmouth Marine School, specialising in traditional and modern boat building, marine engineering and environmental science, ensure an all year round and vibrant community. There are five primary schools and one secondary school in the town and highly regarded independent preparatory and senior schools in Truro. Falmouth boasts the third largest 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; little wonder the town is consistently ranked as one of the top five places to live in the UK
