General Comments - This is the end of a terrace of just three mews houses forming part of the mature residential development at Gwendroc in the lower part of Barrack Lane. The development comprises a mere handful of modern houses built within the grounds of a large period residence (Gwendroc House) which is now several quality apartments. The house along with its two neighbours, has the advantage of a small private garden and independent pedestrian access from David Penhaligon Way which is a cul-de-sac. It is compact and easy to manage and will suit a wide range of purchasers looking for a low maintenance home in a convenient part of the city and easily within walking distance of the shopping centre. There are good open views across the outer limits of the city to open fields in the distance. The accommodation includes two double bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor with hallway, lounge/dining room and kitchen downstairs. The kitchen and bathrooms are very modern and have been replaced in very recent years. The gas fired central heating boiler was replaced in 2023. At the front is parking and a single garage and the rear garden is enclosed with a sunny aspect and pleasant views. The house is sold with no onward chain.

Truro is renowned for its excellent shopping centre, fine selection of restaurants, bars, private and state schools and main line railway link to London (Paddington).
