Grade II Listed Cornish cottage with river views
A compact Grade II Listed Cornish cottage set on Trennick Row, offering classic character, river views and a long sunny garden. The house is chain free and a level walk from Truro city centre and Boscawen Park, making it an accessible city-edge home with outdoor space.
Internally the layout is traditional and efficient: porch, living room with estuary views and open fire, separate dining room, rear kitchen, two bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom. Mains gas boiler and radiators provide central heating but windows are single glazed and the granite walls are likely uninsulated, so energy performance will trail modern standards.
Listed status preserves original character but will complicate alterations and repairs; any external or structural work will need appropriate consents. The cottage is small (approx. 569 sq ft) and will suit buyers prepared for modest rooms or willing to reconfigure/upgrade where permitted.
Practical notes: rear access is via an unmade shared lane, parking is by residents’ permit on-street, and the immediate area records above-average crime and higher local deprivation. Positive extras include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband potential and no recorded flood risk.
