About this property

IN THE OWNER’S WORDS: "The house and street is just so peaceful, yet everything you need is just a short walk away. Relaxing in the back garden, listening to the cathedral bells chime is something we will really miss. We would also take our neighbours with us too if we could!"

Situated in a highly sought-after and quiet residential road on the western side of Truro city centre, this well presented and proportioned, detached property offers a unique split-level layout that seamlessly blends contemporary design with characterful warmth. The house sits in an elevated position that commands striking city and cathedral views from the front elevation.

Conveniently located approximately one mile from the vibrant city centre, the property offers spacious and adaptable accommodation with easy access to shops including local supermarkets, and excellent junior and secondary schooling.

The front features a raised, level lawn, a terrace with super views, a triple driveway providing off-road parking, leading to the a garage/store (2.86m x 2.75m). An covered veranda with courtesy lighting leads to a practical entrance vestibule (2.19m x 1.37m) complete with original parquet flooring and an inner door leading to the Living room.

The stunning Split-Level Living Room (7.12m x 3.60m) is the heart of the home and is a light-filled sitting room featuring an expansive, full height, uPVC double-glazed picture window maximising the cathedral views. This space boasts a semi-vaulted ceiling, rich wood parquet block flooring, and an open fireplace.

The Open-Plan Fitted Kitchen & Dining Area (6.17m x 3.5m): Steps lead up from the sitting room into a good sized kitchen and dining space. It features navy, shaker style cabinetry, a rustic brick feature wall, a breakfast bar, and integrated appliances alongside space for a range cooker and upright fridge-freezer. French doors open directly from the dining area to the rear garden, and a concealed Worcester combination boiler services the gas central heating system.

Adjoining Sun Lounge: From the kitchen is a bright conservatory/garden room (3.94m x 3.56m) equipped with plumbing for laundry appliances. This is a useful utilitarian space which would require modernisation to use as an additional reception room. This connects to a versatile, large side storage room featuring its own front access door and internal steps down to the garage/store room.

Three Double Bedrooms: Accessed via the inner hallway (which retains parquet flooring and provides loft access), the bedrooms are well-proportioned. Bedroom One (3.93m x 3.62m) and Bedroom Three (3.61m x 2.73m) enjoy front-facing city and cathedral views, while Bedroom Two (3.93m x 2.73m) looks out over the rear garden.

Spacious Family Bath & Shower Room (3.58m x 2.24m): A generously sized and attractively tiled, four-piece suite fitted with a freestanding bath (plus shower attachment), low-level WC, wash hand basin with vanity storage, a heated towel rail, and a large separate shower cubicle featuring a mains-fed rain shower head.

Expansive South-West Facing Gardens: The exceptionally large rear garden is well-enclosed, affording an excellent degree of privacy while basking in a sunny, south-westerly aspect. It features a broad pathway running the width of the house, a useful outside tap, a gently sloping lawn bordered by mature trees and hedging, a paved and gravel seating terrace.

Potential: Offering further scope for conversion or extension to form additional accommodation (subject to the necessary planning consents), this double-glazed and centrally heated property represents a fine opportunity in the cathedral city of Truro. A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, view, and style of the home.

SURROUNDING AREA
Truro is the only city in Cornwall, but it feels much more like a bustling, historic market town than a sprawling urban centre. It is nestled in a valley where three rivers meet, giving it a distinct geographical layout that blends classic Cornish charm with elegant Georgian architecture. The defining landmark is Truro Cathedral whose striking Neo-Gothic spires rise dramatically above the slate roofs of the surrounding buildings, and is visible from the house. In the evening it is beautifully illuminated.

The cathedral city of Truro offers an exceptional lifestyle for residents, seamlessly combining capital-city amenities with the unmatched natural beauty of the Cornish coastline close by.

Known for its cobbled streets, independent shops, thriving pannier market, and diverse eateries, Truro provides a friendly and cultural lifestyle hub.Walking through the centre reveals a mix of grand, stone-fronted Georgian townhouses and narrow, paved alleyways known locally as "opes". These cut between the main streets and hide small, independent shops and cafes. While much of Cornwall relies heavily on seasonal coastal tourism, Truro serves as the year-round commercial heart of the county. The daily indoor market at Pannier Market and regular outdoor farmers' markets give the city a lively, energetic atmosphere
Truro serves as Cornwall's retail and cultural hub, boasting a vibrant mix of national brands, boutique independent retailers, and major supermarkets.

For families, the city offers superb educational options with highly regarded state primary and secondary schools, alongside prestigious independent choices like Truro School and Truro High School for Girls. The nearby Royal Cornwall Hospital at Treliske provides comprehensive healthcare right on your doorstep, while Truro & Penwith College offers award-winning further and higher education. Golf enthusiasts are well-catered for with excellent courses at Treliske and further afield in Falmouth, Newquay and Perranporth.

Positioned perfectly in the centre of the county, Truro allows residents to reach the spectacular sandy beaches of both the north and south coasts in under 10 miles. Property buyers looking for a maritime lifestyle will love the city's proximity to the scenic Carrick Roads. A network of picturesque creek-side villages
such as Feock, Devoran, and Mylor
are just a short drive away, offering premier sailing clubs, boat storage, and water sports at hotpots like Loe Beach. Within the city itself, the beautifully landscaped Victoria Gardens and the tranquil walking trails along the Truro River provide peaceful green spaces for daily relaxation.

Commuting and travel are remarkably straightforward. Truro Railway Station provides a direct link to the maritime town of Falmouth and sits on the main line to London Paddington, putting the UK capital within easy reach. For international and domestic travel, Cornwall Airport Newquay is just 20 miles away, offering regular scheduled flights to London Heathrow, major UK cities, and select European destinations.
