Set on a very large plot with multiple access points, this substantial five-bedroom detached period house offers flexible family accommodation and development potential. The interior is well-proportioned with a large lounge, bright dining room with bay window, spacious kitchen/breakfast room and an attic studio suitable for a home office or creative space. Mature gardens and a detached double garage complement the detached location and provide private outdoor space and storage.
Practical strengths include mains gas central heating, double glazing installed after 2002 and ample driveway parking accessed via two separate entrances. Previous planning permission (now expired) was granted for a self-contained annexe (E1/1999/1432), indicating scope for extension or an ancillary unit subject to fresh consents.
Notable drawbacks are factual: the property dates from c.1930–1949 with cavity walls assumed uninsulated, so thermal upgrading and insulation works are likely needed. The surrounding area records above-average crime and higher deprivation measures; local secondary provision includes schools with mixed Ofsted outcomes. The site’s size and location will appeal to buyers prepared to invest in refurbishment or to pursue redevelopment opportunities.
Viewings are by appointment only. This house suits a family seeking space close to Bodmin town centre, or an investor/developer comfortable with planning and improvement projects.
