Set within an elegant Grade II listed Georgian crescent, this spacious one-bedroom penthouse offers generous proportions, high ceilings and original period detail across a comfortable 71 sqm. The open-plan lounge/dining room with a large bay window and decorative coving provides a light, sociable living space, while a separate modern kitchen and large contemporary bathroom make day-to-day living straightforward.
The double bedroom at the rear is peaceful and bright, and the versatile dressing room/hallway can be used as storage, a home working area, or a walk-through wardrobe. Practical benefits include gas central heating, double glazing, share of freehold tenure and a below-average service charge of £116.
Important considerations: the building’s Grade II listing preserves its historic character but restricts alterations and can complicate repairs or upgrades. Broadband provision is very slow in the area and may not suit heavy online users without alternative solutions. General upkeep and any works will need listed-building consents and specialist contractors.
This property suits a buyer seeking characterful city-centre living — a first home or an investment in a sought-after Truro location. Its elevated position on Strangways Terrace places shops, cafes and cultural venues within easy walking distance, while transport links and nearby coastlines keep Cornwall accessible for leisure or commuting.
