A wooden gate opens to an attractive front garden with a decked seating area and a small area of lawn. A pathway leads to the rear garden and a granite step to the entrance lobby. From the entrance lobby an attractive door with stained glass opens to the hallway which in turn leads to the cosy front room and the light and airy semi open-plan kitchen/dining room with separate wc. From the kitchen patio doors open to the garden and the broad south facing sun terrace. On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, one of the double bedrooms has a pleasant outlook over the rear garden and the other two bedrooms have lovely countryside views. The rear garden is south facing and has a deep and broad sun terrace and is mainly laid lawn with a decked area and summerhouse. 1 Poldice Terrace’s biggest asset, arguably, is the area of garden to the east which is a large enclosed space of approximately 0.53 of an acre with a double garage, a range of sheds and outbuildings as well as a two bedroom static caravan which is available by separate negotiation. Some buyers may consider that this area of land may have potential as a building plot, subject to all necessary consents first being obtained. There is also a further single garage and shed on the lane between the property and the separate area of garden. Mundic Block test (Concrete Screening Test) – copy available following viewing.

The cathedral city of Truro is 5 miles distant and is Cornwall’s capital city and has the widest range of facilities and services within the county. The cobbled streets of the city are filled with a mix of local and national retailers, cafes, restaurants and offices offering professional services. A few miles to the north west of the property is the north Cornish coast and a number of spectacular golden sand beaches including Perran Sands, Trevaunance Cove and Porthtowan and of course all giving access to the South West Coast Path. Porthtowan with its fantastic golden surfing beach becomes ever more popular year on year with its renowned Blue Bar which lies just above the beach and is the perfect place to eat and drink whilst watching the waves in the evening sun. 4 Ref: LCAA7785 THE ACCOMMODATION COMPRISES (all floor plans and dimensions are approximate) From the enclosed front garden a brick pavioured pathway leads to a large granite step and the front door opens to:- ENTRANCE LOBBY.
