The Location

Belvedere was constructed by highly regarded Rosemullion Homes in 2006/7 on farmland sold by the Duchy of Cornwall. The Duchy were closely involved in the scheme in order to guarantee an attractive and small development of high-quality homes with a blend of Georgian, Victorian and Art Deco-influenced architecture. The 25 houses were designed by award-winning architects Batterton Tyack (tyackarchitects.com) who successfully respected the site’s contours and geography. Belvedere features curving terraces of houses approached via raised pavements and charming walkways. The design palate was mixed and varied in order to provide a characterful new development with communal open spaces. 

On your doorstep, Waitrose and the Great Cornish Food Store were subsequently built in 2016 providing great convenience, along with the Park & Ride connecting the east side of Truro with the city centre. 

Truro boasts a wide and varied mix of national and boutique retailers found within the pretty cobbled streets radiating out from the iconic Gothic Revival cathedral. An eclectic mix of restaurants, coffee shops and bars along with a cinema and art galleries, are complemented by the national-class Hall for Cornwall.

Sports enthusiasts are particularly well-catered for with a sports centre with swimming pool, two tennis clubs, squash club, rugby, football and cricket clubs within the city. Watersports are readily accessible with the north coast surfing beaches and highly regarded sailing waters of the Carrick Roads on the south coast, both within a short drive. 

With countryside walks, golf, creeks, rivers, surfing and sailing all within striking distance of Truro, this really is the perfect place from which to enjoy a healthy, active and happy life.
