Devoran, Truro Offers in Excess of £550,000

Why You'll like It

This charming character cottage offers great potential to those looking for a bit of a project. The property is in a highly desirable location next to Tallack's Creek and Restronguet Creek and stands in delightful gardens bordered by a pretty stream. The cottage is semi-detached and has super creek views and there is planning consent to extend to the rear and remodel inside along with the creation of a sunny balcony with views. This charming home and it's neighbour share the driveway access (although it belongs to this property) and there is a large area of front garden to the side of the drive with a hard standing and garage (with great potential). In front of the property is a parking and turning area and the rear garden can be accessed via the side of the cottage. The cottage itself has a porch and as it stands, a number of rooms including living room, kitchen, dining room, bathroom and additional room to the rear. The plans that have been passed are to extend and improve the space by moving the stairs to the rear of the cottage and opening up between the principle rooms to create more of an open plan space. There would be a bathroom and plant room also on the ground floor. Heading upstairs, there are currently two double bedrooms and a study but the planning allows for extending to improve the space along with creating three good bedrooms and a first floor bathroom. There will also be a balcony taking advantage of the existing flat roof to make a sunny place to sit and enjoy the views. To the rear of the property there is a long gently sloping garden with outbuildings that has in the past been a much loved productive fruit and vegetable garden. Along the lower side of the garden is a tumbling stream adding to the charm.

Where It Is

For messing around on the river, whether in boats, on boards or simply jumping in for a swim, this location is hard to beat! Devoran is one of the most sought after creekside villages in south Cornwall. Within easy distance of both Truro and Falmouth, it is an ideal spot with its highly regarded primary school, doctors' surgery, pretty church, lively community with village hall and excellent local pub The Old Quay Inn. Cyclists and walkers will love the mineral tramway that links it to the north coast (via The Bissoe Trail). There are endless beautiful walks and the ever changing views of the tidal creek cannot fail to appeal. There is a local convenience shop/ post office and many more facilities at Carnon Downs which is not far away.

Services And Tenure

The property is freehold and has mains water and mains electricity. The property has private drainage (septic tank / soakaway). We understand that this would need to be renewed to an appropriate modern solution as part of the proposed works to the property. Council tax band E
