3 bed town house for sale

Bodmin Road, Truro TR1

The Property

A glorious period townhouse in a wonderful position near central Truro. Generous accommodation full of character and presented beautifully throughout with the added benefit of South/West facing outside space as well as incredibly rare carport and parking.

A private pathway used only by these four period properties sets back the property from Bodmin Road and therefore gives a good amount of privacy and leafy outlook to front and rear. An entrance vestibule with intricate stain glass door provides access to the entrance hallway with panelled walls to dado rail and a stunning tessellated tile floor in pristine condition.

The main reception room is found first which has been opened to create a breathtaking dual living space enjoying high ceilings, picture rails and large skirting. The front side of the room lends itself to a cosy lounge with wood burner and bay window to front aspect whilst the rear is adaptable as a dining area, office or further living space with a large floor to ceiling window doubling up as a doorway to the outside space. Beyond this room there is understairs storage and a doorway opening to a dining room with slate flooring, window to side aspect and range cooker set within an exposed brick surround and pantry cupboard beside. A door to the rear connects seamlessly to the fully fitted high quality kitchen with solid wood units and worktops, shelving, Belfast sink, side door access and large rear window overlooking the garden.

Carpeted stairs rise to the first floor with a panelled wall landing with picture rail above providing access to the sleeping areas. There are two great sized double bedrooms which are similar in size, the rear of which needing a particular mention for the far reach views over Truro and beyond. The third bedroom is a nice sized single and there is certainly scope here for a loft conversion with a spacious landing and great sized roof space, subject to the necessary consents. To the rear of the property there is a useful separate WC as well as a very generous family bathroom with wooden flooring, panelled and tiled walls, modern fittings, heated towel rail, integrated storage and a stand-alone bath with shower above.

Outside there is plenty to offer – the rear garden has been transformed into a great space with a sunny South/West aspect from which to enjoy the far reaching views over Truro and glimpses of the cathedral spires. A resin bound and composite decked floor provides plenty of seating areas and the space is enclosed by an exposed brick wall, quality fencing and railings to ensure privacy and security. Steps lead down to the rear to a large carport under the decking providing great storage and parking for two vehicles with the ability to park a third car in front if desired. This space is easily accessed via a wide shared lane off Bodmin Road. To the front of the property there is a paved section of garden with raised planted beds with a historical understanding of belonging to Higher Campfield – this offers a lovely morning sun seating area as well as useful storage options as well.

This truly is an excellent example of an above the norm Truro townhouse and is wholeheartedly recommended for viewing, available with no onward chain.
