A ground-floor, newly renovated one-bedroom retirement apartment in the heart of Truro, offering easy access to shops, medical facilities and transport links. The living room is bright and flows to a separate kitchen; a large bedroom with built-in wardrobes provides space for a small office area. The bathroom includes a walk-in bath, useful for mobility and bathing safety.
Practical features include allocated off-street parking (first-come, first-served), double glazing and electric storage heaters. The property is leasehold and compact at around 477 sq ft, making it straightforward to manage for a single occupant or couple looking to downsize into central city living.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is electric storage heaters which can be more expensive than mains gas, glazing was installed before 2002, and external cavity walls are assumed uninsulated — further insulation work may be beneficial. Parking is communal and not guaranteed to a dedicated space. The building sits in a deprived local area classification, which affects the wider neighbourhood profile but not the convenience of the central location.
Overall this apartment is a ready-to-move-in retirement home for someone prioritising central location, low-maintenance living and nearby services, with realistic considerations around heating, insulation and parking availability.
