The Property

What a super opportunity to purchase this end of terrace double fronted period house in a sought-after part of Truro. The spacious and versatile accommodation offers so many differing options and the property has been priced according to the modernisation required.

The accommodation measures 1,151 sq ft in total and can be laid out in lots of different ways. In current layout the ground floor comprises two reception rooms filled with natural light – a full length lounge with beautiful fireplace, cherry wood flooring and windows to both aspects and a separate dining room as well as a fully fitted kitchen to the rear with aga and WC next door. Off the second reception room there is an area that was originally a green grocers shop but latterly converted into an annexe style bedroom with its own private shower room and small kitchen area. A turning staircase rises to the first floor where there are three bedrooms (two doubles and a single) as well as a family bathroom. There is so much potential here and character in abundance at every turn with fireplaces, floorboards, high skirting, stain glass windows and picture rails to name a few. The property is also heated by a modern gas boiler.

To the rear is a great sized courtyard garden with a lovely outlook – perfect for al-fresco dining and with useful side access. Whilst to the front is a paved area which has been previously used as a parking space for a small car. There are also beautiful cathedral views from this front area and indeed from the front facing rooms within the house.

For those wanting to live in an excellent location and put their stamp on an interesting property with great bones then look no further.

The Location

Compton Terrace is location on Campfield Hill - this is true city centre living with everything on your doorstep. You can walk into town in minutes to enjoy New and Old Bridge Street lined with independent retailers, cafes and bars leading to the city centre. This position is particularly convenient for the well renowned Archbishop Benson primary school and The Rising Sun pub which serves some of the best food in the city. Several green spaces are close as well with Daubuz Moors and Tremorvah Playing Field being a short walk away. Driving North out of town you can be on the A30 in around 10 minutes and there are excellent transport links with trains and buses heading in all directions nearby.

Truro is the capital of Cornwall and as such boasts much in the way of vibrancy and a real 'buzz' all year round. There is a vast array of excellent restaurants, bars, pubs and cafes as well as varied shopping facilities from main high street retailers to independent shops and local markets. Well renowned schools are in abundance and there is a main line railway link to London (Paddington) within 5 hours. Draws such as the newly renovated Hall for Cornwall, historic Truro Cathedral and Royal Cornwall Museum are on one's doorstep with regular city events taking place throughout the year such as Truro Food Festival, City of Lights and famous Christmas markets.
