This substantial four-bedroom detached house occupies a generous end-of-cul-de-sac corner plot a short walk from Truro city centre, Waitrose and local schools. The property already benefits from double garage, driveway parking, mains gas central heating and UPVC double glazing. Two bedrooms have en‑suites, and the dual-aspect living room brings good natural light. Planning consent (PA19/02565) to build a large rear extension has been approved and some groundworks have commenced, offering clear scope to increase living space.
The house is best suited to a growing family or buyers seeking a project with tangible upside. The large garden and corner plot give flexibility for landscaping, extension completion or other improvements (subject to consents). Internal rooms are well proportioned across an average-sized footprint and the location offers easy pedestrian access to primary and secondary schools, shops and local leisure facilities.
There are important works to factor into any purchase. The property requires renovation throughout; one en-suite needs repair and parts of the garden have had excavation and retaining work started. Buyers should obtain professional advice on the current planning status, the validity of the started groundworks, and any necessary retaining-wall construction. Council tax band is above average (Band E), and some remedial and finishing costs should be anticipated.
Viewed candidly, this home offers immediate accommodation with strong scope to add value by completing the approved extension and modernising interior finishes. For families wanting space and a convenient Truro location, the plot and permissions present a compelling long-term opportunity provided buyers budget for renovation and professional checks.
