Description

This two-bedroom mews-style cottage is set back from the road within walking distance of Truro city centre, the railway station and Bosvigo Primary School. Converted in 2015, it combines exposed stonework and beamed ceilings with an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. The fitted kitchen has integrated appliances and space and plumbing for a washing machine. Bedroom two and the family bathroom are on the ground floor. Upstairs, the main bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, Juliet balcony and en-suite shower room. Outside, a gated courtyard includes a section owned by the property, with a neighbour retaining a right of way to reach their part. There is no allocated parking, although permit parking is available. The property is leasehold with a share of the freehold and the balance of a 999-year lease from 2015. The building is managed by Silver Key, with a stated service, maintenance and buildings insurance charge of £120 per month, reviewed annually. It is currently tenanted and notice has been given. The agent notes that general decoration is required, providing scope for a modest refresh. Mains water, drainage and electricity are connected. Council tax band C and EPC rating E.
