Set on the outskirts of Truro in a quiet hamlet, Magpie Cottage combines period character with recent refurbishment. The house offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms and two reception rooms across well-proportioned, light-filled floors; exposed beams, leaded windows and a traditional kitchen with oil AGA retain cottage charm while providing move-in ready convenience.
Outside, the large plot backs onto open fields and includes generous front and rear gardens, decking and off-street parking for 3–4 cars. A sound outbuilding offers scope to convert to a one-bedroom annexe subject to planning permission — an attractive option for extended family or rental income but not guaranteed without consent.
Practical points to note: heating is by oil boiler with radiators and glazing was upgraded after 2002, yet the property has an EPC rating of E and the original granite walls are assumed to lack insulation. Broadband and mobile signals are average for the rural setting. The house is freehold and offered chain free, making it straightforward to progress.
This cottage will suit families seeking rural character with good access to Truro, local schools and transport links, or buyers who value land, garden and conversion potential. The refurbishment means minimal immediate works inside, but prospective buyers should factor in running costs associated with oil heating and the likely need for insulation or energy improvements to raise efficiency.
