The Property

From the moment you step inside, the property combines the charm you’d expect from a period home with the practicality required for modern living.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors, with a welcoming entrance hall leading into a comfortable sitting room. To the rear, the kitchen/dining room provides a sociable heart to the home, with a good range of base and eye-level units, tiled splashbacks, stainless-steel sink, tiled flooring and useful storage.

There is also a generous storage cupboard with potential to create a downstairs WC, subject to the necessary consents and works.

First Floor

Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, making this an appealing option for couples, sharers, first-time buyers or investors.

The principal bedroom benefits from built-in storage, while the second bedroom offers excellent flexibility as a guest room, home office or additional double bedroom.

The modern family bathroom has been finished with a contemporary suite, including a rainfall shower over the bath, floating vanity unit with storage and WC. A new unvented hot water pressure cylinder has also been recently installed.

Outside

To the rear is a low-maintenance courtyard garden, providing a private and practical outdoor space without the upkeep associated with a larger garden.

Two useful storage sheds provide valuable additional space for bikes, tools, gardening equipment and general household storage.

There is also potential for resident permit parking in the surrounding area, subject to availability and the relevant Cornwall Council requirements. Buyers are advised to make their own enquiries regarding eligibility and current permit arrangements.

The Location – City Living on Your Doorstep

One of the property’s greatest attractions is its position.

Kenwyn Street is within easy walking distance of Truro city centre, allowing you to leave the car behind and enjoy the city’s restaurants, cafés, bars, shops and cultural attractions on foot.

Truro offers an enviable combination of city convenience and access to Cornwall’s coastline and countryside. The historic Truro Cathedral, Hall for Cornwall, Royal Cornwall Museum, independent shops and a wide selection of restaurants and cafés are all close by.

For commuters, Truro railway station provides a mainline connection towards London Paddington and Penzance, while Newquay Airport offers further travel connections.

And when it’s time to escape the city, some of Cornwall’s most celebrated beaches and coastal destinations are within driving distance, including Perranporth, St Agnes, Godrevy, Gwithian Towans and St Ives.

An Ideal First Home, Investment or City Base

Properties combining period character, modern presentation, two double bedrooms and such a central Truro location rarely offer this level of convenience without significant ongoing maintenance.

The property would make an excellent first-time purchase, a highly practical city-centre home, a lock-up-and-leave base in Cornwall, or an attractive investment opportunity, subject to the buyer’s own assessment of suitability and rental potential.

CHAIN FREE and ready to move into, this is a property where an early viewing is strongly recommended.
