A modern two-bedroom first-floor apartment offered as a 50% shared ownership, located within easy walking distance of Truro city centre. The property sits in a low-rise block with lift access, a Juliet balcony and an open-plan lounge/dining/kitchen that benefits from good natural light. Two double bedrooms and a bathroom make this a practical home for first-time buyers or a compact buy-to-let.
The sale price represents a 50% share (£90,000); the remaining 50% is rented at £246.66 per month. Staircasing to 100% leasehold ownership is available, giving a clear route to full ownership. The flat has gas central heating, double glazing and one allocated off-street parking space, plus nearby health services and city amenities a short walk away.
Notable drawbacks are factual and relevant: the property is leasehold with approximately 81 years remaining, and broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, which may affect home working or streaming. The wider area shows higher levels of deprivation, though recorded crime is very low. Buyers should factor in the ongoing rent for the unsold share until staircasing is completed.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, well-presented apartment that suits a first-time buyer seeking an affordable city-centre option or an investor targeting straightforward rental demand. The purchase route via shared ownership lowers the up-front cost but carries rental and lease-length considerations that buyers should review before committing.
