Bright, renovated two-bedroom apartment set on the first floor of a striking Victorian building on Fore Street, Bodmin. The flat offers generous room proportions, high ceilings and period character combined with modern finishes — a practical, low-council-tax home ready to occupy or rent out. Gas central heating and included white goods help reduce immediate running costs.
At about 711 sq ft the layout works for a first-time buyer, small family or investor seeking a town-centre property. Secondary glazing and a well-equipped kitchen with dining space complement the wide living room that runs the width of the apartment. There is no flood risk and mobile and broadband connections are strong in this central location with many nearby amenities and schools.
Important transactional facts: the property is leasehold and will be sold at auction using the Modern Method of Auction. A non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) plus a buyer pack fee apply. Buyers must complete identity checks, provide funding proof and undertake their own due diligence before bidding. The property is offered with a buyer information pack and may have an undisclosed reserve price.
Practical considerations: the building dates from before 1900 with granite walls likely uninsulated and secondary glazing rather than full double glazing. The local area records above-average crime levels and is identified as very deprived; prospective buyers should assess tenure, local services and any necessary ongoing maintenance or insulation improvements. Viewing and careful pre-auction checks are recommended to confirm suitability and costs.
