DESCRIPTION The Slipway occupies a quiet and tucked away position, perched on top of the tranquil waters at Bar Creek. A paved pathway leads to the front door which opens to a spacious entrance hallway with low level sensor lighting and two large storage cupboards. Off the entrance hallway are two light and airy spacious double bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite bath/shower room while the other is served by the beautifully appointed shower room accessed off the entrance hall. The open-plan kitchen/dining/living room is a truly fantastic space and your eye is instantly drawn to the stunning views across the river and to the woodland and countryside beyond. Sliding glazed doors and a further large window face south west and allow light to flood in whilst giving you a feeling of being balanced just above the water. The patio doors open to a paved sun terrace which is a most blissful spot from which to enjoy the views whilst also being an extension of the living space. The attention to detail and quality of workmanship is evident from the moment you arrive at the front door with low level motion activated lighting in the entrance hallway. The bathrooms are beautifully appointed with Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware and are fully tiled with a range of Porcelanosa tiles. In the two bedrooms and the study the triple glazed windows have internal louvred blinds. There is zone controlled underfloor heating throughout the entire apartment with solar panels, an air source heat pump and triple glazing throughout making the property incredibly energy efficient. There is also a heat recovery system in place. The Rot Punkt German kitchen is fitted with a range of handleless, soft close wood effect units under a Unistone granite worktop with a range of integrated Neff appliances and a mirrored splashback reflects the views and the light. The Slipway also enjoys the benefit of being able to use the steps down to the foreshore which in turn gives access to the pontoon making this the perfect residence for sailing enthusiasts. Rarely do such highly specified and beautifully appointed apartments with access to the water become available in such a blissful spot yet just a short distance from the cathedral city of Truro. Viewing is highly recommended by the vendors’ sole agent to fully appreciate the scarcity of the opportunity on offer. LOCATION Malpas is an enchanting and peaceful village at the end of a no-through road with a well known pub, The Heron Inn, which offers excellent food and beautiful views over the river. This tranquil stretch of river is an ideal place to learn to sail or to enjoy kayaking and stand
