St. Josephs, Kimberley Place, Falmouth, TR11 3QL

An exceptional detached five-bedroom period home with a separate two-bedroom annexe, moments from Kimberley Park and a short stroll to the town centre, harbourside and beaches.

Built in the 1840s and formerly a convent and school, St Joseph’s is a distinctive and elegant residence, rich in history and architectural detail.

Behind its handsome façade lies a beautifully proportioned home where original character blends seamlessly with modern comfort.

A grand reception hall with carved balustrades and a galleried landing sets the tone.

Two generous reception rooms connect effortlessly the sitting room with wood-burning stove and French doors to the garden, and a separate dining room ideal for entertaining.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well-appointed with polished granite worktops and ample space for family life. A shower room with laundry area completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs are five bedrooms and a family bathroom with both freestanding bath and separate shower. Several rooms enjoy river and sea glimpses, with particularly fine views from the principal bedroom.

Above, a substantial 74 sq m loft offers potential for further accommodation (subject to the necessary consents) although we believe the existing accommodation is impressive enough!

The detached two-bedroom annexe provides excellent flexibility, ideal for guests, multi-generational living, holiday or long-term letting, or a home office/business space.

The gardens are private, mature and sheltered, with gated access through a neighbouring garden leading from Kimberley Place. Gas central heating and double glazing are installed.

Offered with no onward chain.
