GENERAL COMMENTS
18 St Clements Terrace is a very attractive period cottage situated in a quiet location only a short walk from the city centre. It is set in a slightly elevated position and enjoys a warm, south facing aspect with a long front garden and magnificent views over the city. The cottage is beautifully presented throughout with surprisingly large rooms and there is a feeling of light and space throughout. The accommodation includes two double bedrooms and bathroom with bath and separate shower on the first floor. The ground floor has an entrance porch, large sitting room with woodburning stove, kitchen/dining room and utility room. The windows are double glazed and there is mains gas fired central heating. The front garden enjoys a sunny south facing aspect and is much larger than one would expect to find so close to the city centre, there is also a rear courtyard. An early internal viewing is thoroughly recommended.
LOCATION
St Clements Terrace is a south facing, elevated terrace of period cottages. The position is most convenient, being only a short walk from the city centre and also in close proximity of Archbishop Benson primary school. 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). The Hall for Cornwall is also a popular venue providing all year round entertainment and other cultural facilities include the Royal Cornwall Museum and the historic Cathedral.

The front garden is truly delightful and enjoys lovely views over Truro. It enjoys a good level of privacy as well as a warm, south facing aspect and sun for the majority of the day. At the uppermost part of the garden is a large paved patio that has been added very recently providing sitting out space and immediately beyond the patio is a gently sloping lawn that runs the length of the garden. At the bottom of the lawn is a log store and two timber garden sheds. A pathway runs along the western side of the garden providing pedestrian access onto St Clements Terrace through a gate at the bottom. The eastern boundary is owned by the property and has been replaced with concrete posts and a new fence within the last twelve months. A selection of mature shrubs and plants including hydrangeas, camellias run long this boundary creating colour and interest as well as privacy.
At the rear is an enclosed courtyard with attractive paving creating a private sitting out space. There is an outside tap. A solid wooden gate opens into the rear access lane where the current owners park their two cars.
