The Location
Situated opposite Boscawen Park, Boscawen Woods is a quiet and highly desirable development of 54 houses and apartments, completed in 2016. Number 54 enjoys a prime position at the very top of the development and stands on one of its largest plots, offering an excellent sense of space and privacy.
Boscawen Park itself provides beautifully maintained gardens, a children’s play area, a coffee shop and café, together with an excellent range of sporting facilities including tennis courts, football pitches and Truro Cricket Club.
At the end of the garden, direct access leads onto the footpath towards Malpas and St Clement, providing a wonderful connection to the surrounding countryside and riverside walks great for dog-walking and trail running. A scenic route also follows the river to the waterside village of Malpas, home to The Heron Inn, a café and farm shop, a marina and a modern village hall, before continuing on towards the historic village of St Clement and its charming church.
Truro city centre is just a short, level distance away and offers a vibrant mix of national and independent retailers, charming cobbled streets, restaurants, cafés, bars and a cinema, all centred around the iconic cathedral and the nationally acclaimed Hall for Cornwall. Sports enthusiasts are especially well served in this area, with tennis, squash, rugby, football and cricket clubs nearby, while the north coast surfing beaches and the sheltered sailing waters of the Carrick Roads are both within easy reach.
