A ground-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment set on the riverside in central Truro, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation. The flat delivers level access, a house manager, and a pull-cord alarm system for added peace of mind, plus pleasant views over the tidal River Allen and nearby Furniss Island park. Its location is exceptionally convenient with shops, cafes, the Hall for Cornwall and the bus station all within easy walking distance.
Practical details are straightforward: fitted kitchen, accessible shower room with grab handles and seat, and an entry system to the building. There is off-street parking available to rent subject to availability, and residents hold a key to a gated path leading to the riverside park. The property is served by electric storage heating and double glazing installed before 2002.
Important buyer considerations: the flat is leasehold with 63 years remaining on a 125-year lease (from 1988). This limited term is likely to restrict mortgage options — many lenders may refuse to lend — and should be a decisive factor for purchasers. Service charges average £2,508 per year and parking is not guaranteed but can sometimes be rented.
This property suits an over-55s buyer seeking a central, low-mobility residence with riverside outlooks and onsite support. It offers independent city-centre living with clear practical limitations: short lease, electric heating, and slow broadband speeds that may affect those needing fast internet.
