A double-fronted, end-of-terrace 1950s house in sought-after Playing Place, offered chain-free and ready for an internal refurbishment. The layout provides flexible family living with two reception rooms that could be opened into a larger ground-floor living space, three bedrooms upstairs and a single bathroom. The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and externally well-maintained elevations, so the main works are internal cosmetic and functional upgrades.
Outside, there is practical off-street parking for up to two cars, a substantial detached garage/workshop with power, light and an inspection pit, and a low-maintenance gravelled front area. For someone wanting a project, the workshop is a real asset for storage, trades or conversion (subject to consents).
Notable negatives are clear: the house needs internal renovation and updating throughout, and broadband speeds are reported as slow locally (though materials supplied list a possible superfast connection up to 52Mbps—buyers should verify). There is a single bathroom for three bedrooms, which may influence family buyers, and the property is a project purchase rather than a move-in-ready home.
This is a strong opportunity for a first-time buyer, investor or DIY couple seeking an affordable home in a quiet village location two miles from Truro. With no onward chain and confirmed mortgageable construction (mundic A1), the plot offers scope to add value by modernising the interior and reconfiguring the ground floor to suit contemporary living.
