This three-bedroom semi-detached house on a modern development is built in 2017 and still benefits from the remainder of its NHBC warranty. The ground floor offers a living room with built-in storage, cloakroom, and an open kitchen/diner with French doors leading to a private, low-maintenance rear garden — suitable for young children or easy outdoor upkeep. Driveway parking and an adjacent single garage add practical vehicle and storage space.
The property is well configured for family life: two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom upstairs, plus gas-fired central heating on a combi boiler and uPVC double glazing for thermal comfort. Council Tax is affordable (Band B stated) and the home has an EPC rating of B. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for remote working or streaming.
Location is a genuine selling point: the house sits within walking distance of Charlestown and Duporth beaches and gives easy access to local primary and secondary schools, shops and regular bus links. The immediate neighbourhood is a contemporary cul-de-sac style development, making it a convenient base for seaside amenities and short drives into St Austell and Truro.
Notable drawbacks are factual and should be considered: the plot and front garden are small so outdoor space is limited; there is an annual service charge of about £200; and local recorded crime levels are above average. Internally the home is designed for compact family use — buyers seeking large rooms or extensive gardens may find space constrained. Overall, this is a low-maintenance, modern family home close to the coast with straightforward running costs and practical parking.
