A very attractive and imposing detached four bedroom Victorian family home with a landscaped sunny rear garden, period features, far reaching views, parking and garage all set in a sought after location within a short walk of the city centre and excellent schools.

Why You'll Like It - This is an exemplary imposing detached Victorian residence in a sought after residential location. The property is within walking distance of the city centre and in superb school catchment, with the benefit of sunny gardens, three off-road parking spaces and a garage. There are delightful period features throughout, with the ground floor comprising; a snug with double glazed bay window to one side of the hallway, and a large living / dining room to the other, also with a bay window. The hallway has an ornate staircase to the first floor and a step down into an office style reception room with patio doors onto a terrace, utility cupboard and WC. The kitchen / breakfast room is well proportioned to the rear of the property with central island, polished granite work surfaces, integrated appliances and a mains gas Rayburn, and forms part of an extension with fabulous views onto the enclosed garden, along with bi-folding doors giving access to the sunny patio. Heading upstairs, a spacious landing connects four bedrooms and the primary suite to the rear of the property has fitted furniture, an en-suite shower room and garden views. There are two further double bedrooms and a single, and a family bathroom which has a bath and separate walk in shower. Outside, to the rear, a sunny terrace and patio area is perfect for al-fresco dining and can be accessed from the office area or kitchen. Steps then lead to the garden which is mostly lawned, well stocked and gently slopes away from the property. The garden enjoys a sunny aspect and there are mature shrubs and planting with different sections of garden accessed via an archway and gate to the former fruit and vegetable garden which could be restored for growing produce but would also make a great area for a garden room or childrens' play equipment. There is plenty of parking with this city centre home, the private off-road spaces are accessed via a shared driveway and there is the benefit of a detached garage with pedestrian garden access and pitched roof.

Where It Is - Carvoza Road is one of the favoured streets of period properties a short stroll from Archbishop Benson Primary School. It benefits from a residents' parking scheme, allowing easy parking to the front. The local pub, The Rising Sun in Mitchell Hill has an excellent reputation for food and hospitality. The super facilities of the city are not too far down the hill with a vast array of shops, restaurants and bars to choose from as well as a wealth of cultural attractions including The Royal Cornwall Museum , The Hall for Cornwall theatre and of course the splendid Neo-Gothic Truro Cathedral which often hosts exciting events such as silent discos. At the end of Carvoza Road and across the street you will find Tremorvah Playing Field which is a fantastic park with children's play equipment and also exercise equipment, and down the hill is Daubuz Moor, an area of public woodland with a river running through it.

Tenure And Services - Freehold. Mains water, electric, gas and drainage are connected.
