2 Bed Apartment For Sale

Ideally situated, equidistant from both the harbourside and the seafront, this 1 (possibly 2) bedroom apartment takes up the entire ground floor of a former Victorian House in the charming street of Bar Terrace. Castle Beach is just a leisurely 5-minute stroll away, as is the towns train station with branch line to Truro Station, which provides a direct link to London Paddington.

This charming property, originally constructed around 1885, still retains numerous original features, such as timber floorboards, high ceilings, decorative architraves, fireplaces, and elegant sash windows. The generous ceiling height, in particular, produces an alluring sense of spaciousness.

Offered for sale as a freehold property, this apartment shares the building with just one leasehold property, simplifying maintenance responsibilities, with costs evenly divided on a 50-50 basis with the first-floor apartment. Notably, the upper apartment's previous owner is believed to have added soundproof insulation beneath their new floor coverings.

Outside, the ground floor apartment enjoys ownership of the front garden including a raised terrace, while the upper apartment has use of the rear garden. Importantly, the front garden basks in afternoon and late evening sun during the summer months.

Many buyers may appreciate the current layout, as displayed on the floorplan. However, we believe there is potential to reconfigure the space into two en-suite bedrooms, catering to the preferences of certain buyers. Of course, this would be subject to compliance with all relevant building regulations, post completion of sale.

Arguably, the most convenient terrace for those requiring easy access to the harbourside, seafront and town centre, all of which are within a 5 minute walk.

Another excellent nearby asset is the town's Railway Station, which provides a direct link to the city of Truro and onward to London Paddington.
