This spacious five-bedroom detached home sits on a large plot in Bodmin, offering generous living space across multiple levels for a growing family. Ground-floor accommodation includes four double bedrooms—two with garden-facing double doors—and a family bathroom with spa bath; an upstairs fifth bedroom enjoys access to a balcony shared with the lounge and dining room.
The kitchen and adjacent dining room are bright and practical, and the property benefits from double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators, garage and private parking for up to six cars. Solar panels are installed with an early feed-in tariff, reducing running costs and providing a modest income stream.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: council tax is above average, local crime levels are above average, and the wider area shows signs of deprivation. Some nearby schools are rated ‘requires improvement’. Constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, the house is presented well but may benefit from modern updating in places to suit contemporary tastes.
Overall, this is a roomy, well-located family home with strong outdoor space, good parking and energy advantages from solar panels, balanced by local area challenges and higher running costs.
