General Remarks And Location - This is a very attractive modern property designed specifically to blend with the former coach-houses directly fronting Barrack Lane to the rear of the large regency houses known as Strangways Terrace. The lane frontage of the building has natural stone and tile hung elevations with small pane casement double glazed windows and incorporates a vehicular under-passage giving access into a courtyard for parking at the rear. It is arguably a much larger building than might be immediately apparent with the accommodation arranged over three floors.
The property is accessed from the private enclosed rear courtyard garden which leads into a hallway with two bedrooms (one ensuite) and a utility room. From the hallway stairs rise to the first floor directly into a spacious living room and with a short flight of steps leading up to a fitted kitchen. Also on this floor there is the principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom. From the main reception room a further staircase rises to the second floor and into a room either for use as a dressing room or perhaps a study. There is gas fired under-floor central heating and all windows are double-glazed.

Barrack Lane is set within the designated Conservation Area at the top of Lemon Street and approached alongside the impressive Lander monument. It is a very desirable residential location, notably quiet and away from the main traffic flow and yet very convenient for access to the shops and facilities of Truro City centre.

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.
