About this property

Attractive Grade II Listed Apartment with Cathedral Views and Parking.

Situated within an elegant Grade II listed period building in the highly sought-after Moresk Road area. This spacious and well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment enjoys stunning views of the iconic Cathedral, and is offered to the market with no onward chain.

Perfectly positioned just moments from Truro city centre, the property offers an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, professionals seeking convenient city living, or investors looking for a desirable rental property.

The accommodation comprises a private ground-floor entrance hall with stairs rising to the first-floor living space. At the heart of the home is a generous lounge/dining room, providing ample space for both relaxation and entertaining while enjoying far-reaching views towards Truro Cathedral. The kitchen offers a range of storage units and practical preparation space. There are two bedrooms, including a comfortable double bedroom and a versatile single bedroom, together with a family bathroom.

A particular feature of the property is the accessible loft space, which benefits from an existing dormer window and offers excellent storage potential. Subject to the necessary consents and permissions, the space may present an exciting opportunity for further conversion and enhancement.

Additional benefits include electric heating, an allocated parking space, and visitor parking available via permit.

Residents also enjoy access to attractive communal lawned gardens positioned to the front of the building.

Moresk Road was historically one of Truro's most prestigious approaches into the city, lined with substantial villas and country houses built for wealthy merchants, mine owners and professionals during the city's growth and prosperity throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Benson House is one of the surviving examples of this important period of expansion and continues to reflect the character and heritage of the area today.

Combining period charm, city-centre convenience, allocated parking and spectacular Cathedral views, this appealing apartment offers a wonderful lifestyle opportunity in one of Truro's most sought-after locations.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the character, position and value this unique home has to offer.
