Why You'll Like It

This four bedroom (two en-suite) family house stands in a surprisingly large garden plot and has in been granted planning consent to extend and we are told that some of the ground works for the extension have been done meaning that the work is started keeping the planning consent valid (we advise potential buyers to take professional advice on this point). The property is located on a corner plot at the end of a favoured cul-de-sac and within walking range of good schools and shops. While in need of some updating and repair in places, the property offers fantastic space and amazing future potential. In brief the accommodation comprises; entrance hallway & WC, dual aspect living room, dining room and fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and extractor on the ground floor. Upstairs, a landing connects the four bedrooms (two of which are double en-suites) with the family bathroom. Outside, there is a double garage (perhaps with potential to build over subject to any necessary consent), driveway parking and a very large garden to the rear and side with a substantial level area and some elevated banks with mature trees. The property has mains gas central heating and UPVC double glazing.

Where It Is

Ideally located on the Eastern side of the city with access to good local primary, secondary and independent schools within walking distance. Penair Secondary School can be accessed on foot via a footpath from the neighbouring cul-de-sac. There is also a footpath leading towards the city centre making the central Truro truly walkable from here. The Waitrose supermarket just up the hill is really convenient and has a lovely cafe too. Adjoining Waitrose is The Great Cornish Food Store which also has a cafe and is a great place to buy locally sourced produce. There are a number of other shops nearby too including Dunelm Mill and Hobby Craft. Rural walks are close at hand with access via a footpath into the countryside towards St Clement. Superb facilities are available to the public at the Sir Ben Ainslie Sports Centre which is not too far away and offers membership to the indoor pool, sports halls and gym.

Material Information

The property is in need of a certain amount of refurbishment, particularly one of the en-suite shower rooms is in need of repair. In May 2019 conditional planning consent was approved to build a large rear extension PA19/02565. Some groundworks have commenced for the extension and we are told by the seller that the planning consent is valid for this reason. We advise potential buyers to take professional advice to confirm this point. The garden has been subject to ground works in preparation for a planned extension which was never built. It is worth noting that whether or not the extension is built in future, the next owner will need to take professional advice regarding the construction of retaining walls where the garden bank has been excavated.
