Description

Flat 8 occupies a an enviable third floor position with its main orientation facing South West, looking down river to Malpas, Boscawen and beyond to the wooded banks of Porthkea and Old Kea.

Ground floor
From the road, access to the private parking area is given through an electric roll down door.

Situated on the third floor, the apartment is accessed through a stairwell or lift which an exterior covered walkway leads to the front door.

The flat is bright and spacious throughout, with three good sized double bedrooms, two of which enjoy fabulous views across the Malpas River with floor to ceiling windows following the curvature of the building.

On entering the flat, bedroom three on your left is potentially an ideal home office, with two roadside windows, carpeted floor and wiring for Internet. An inner door can be closed to form a lobby if required.

Opposite is the combined kitchen, dining room and sitting room, complete with Southwest facing balcony. Doors and windows span the width of the room, filling the space with natural light and glorious views of the river. The waterside position of the apartment makes it perfect for those seeking to entertain.
Wood effect laminate flooring throughout; integrated appliances including oven, gas hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washer/dryer.

Further down the hallway is the main bathroom with shower over bath setup, WC and sink and terracotta tiling serving the second and third bedroom.
The second bedroom is generous in proportions, featuring floor to ceiling windows and a wooded outlook with glimpses of the river.

The principal bedroom looks out over the river, and surely one of the best bedroom views in Truro. Again, of generous size and featuring an en suite which has been updated in recent years by the owner with shower enclosure, WC and basin and porcelain tiles.

Roof terrace
Stairs ascend to the top floor of the building where there is an expansive roof terrace offering wonderful City and water views.
