Double glazing throughout; modern fitted kitchen with induction hob

This attractive Victorian semi occupies a generous plot on Trefusis Road, offering a practical family layout with period character and clear scope to add value. The house has three good bedrooms, a living and dining room with bay window and fireplaces, and an enclosed rear garden that’s safe for children and easy to maintain. A garage with a fitted utility area and driveway parking add everyday convenience.
A key advantage is planning permission already granted for a two-storey rear extension to create an additional bedroom and an upstairs bathroom — a straightforward route to increase living space and resale value. Modern touches include double glazing throughout and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven and induction hob. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and Redruth’s schools, shops and mainline station are within easy reach.
Buyers should note some practical considerations. The property is an older granite-built house (pre-1900) and walls are assumed uninsulated, so upgrading insulation and heating efficiency will be worthwhile. The main heating uses an oil-fired boiler and radiators, which can be more costly to run than mains gas. There is a single family bathroom and the area is classified as deprived, factors to weigh alongside the home’s strengths.
Overall this is a solid family home with period appeal and clear potential to expand and modernise. It suits buyers who want a ready-to-live-in house with scope for improving energy efficiency and adding rooms via the existing planning consent.
