Set in a handsome Victorian building in the heart of Truro, this spacious two-double-bedroom basement apartment combines period character with contemporary fittings. The living room and modern kitchen/diner offer comfortable daily living, while two allocated off-street parking spaces are rare for a city-centre flat and add practical value.
The apartment is presented in good order throughout with a modern shower room and integrated kitchen appliances. Leasehold tenure is long (around 950 years) with no ground rent and a low maintenance contribution of £40 per month, keeping running costs modest. Council Tax sits at Band A, making annual bills comparatively cheap.
A few practical points to note: the accommodation is a lower-ground/basement flat so natural light is reduced and there is a potential for damp in older stone buildings — buyers should inspect for moisture and ventilation. Broadband speeds in the area are reportedly very slow, which may affect home working without a wired solution. The wider area has pockets of deprivation, though local crime levels are very low and schools nearby include several well-regarded primary and secondary options.
This property will suit first-time buyers or those seeking a manageable city-centre home with parking and long-term security on the lease. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investors who can address the broadband and lower-ground characteristics to maximise appeal.
