Best & Final Offers Invited by Friday 1st November 2024 at 12 noon

Tucked away in a pleasant rural setting, a detached bungalow set within approximately 1.2 acres of private gardens on Truro's western fringe.

The Property
This older style detached bungalow currently provides three bedroom accommodation and would benefit from general updating. It has three bedrooms, lounge, kitchen and bathroom together with conservatory room. The property has been re-roofed and most windows are uPVC double glazed.

For many, the main attraction will be the 1.2 acres of gardens that enjoy a sunny aspect at the top sloping down to a mature wooded area, bordered along one side by a private stream adjacent to the wonderful viaduct.

The property is approached over an unmade lane, which provides access to the neighbouring properties. Leading off the lane is a tarmacadam driveway which drops down along the front of the bungalow to the garaging and outbuildings. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn and incorporate a number of mature fruit trees, two single garages and a small workshop.

A Concrete Screening Test was carried out by Cornwall Consultants in March 2012 which identified the blockwork within the property at the time as Class A which was considered acceptable for mortgage purposes. Although now out of date we do have a copy available on request.

Since releasing the property to the open market, we have been advised that the property is located in an area covered by a blanket Tree Preservation Order.

Particulars & Plan
Whilst every care is taken in the preparation of these particulars, their accuracy is not guaranteed and they do not constitute any part of an offer or contract. Any intending purchaser/s must satisfy themselves by inspection or otherwise as to the correctness of these particulars.

Location
The property is located on the western side of the city within easy reach of the hospital and is approached over a long shared country lane. Due to its slightly elevated position, the property enjoys open views across surrounding countryside towards the woods in the distance. In many ways, the property offers the best of both worlds as it enjoys an attractive rural setting and yet it is no way isolated being only 2½ miles from the city centre.

Viewing & Directions
