Description

Occupying a private and substantial plot tucked away behind a gated driveway, this distinctive detached bungalow offers spacious and flexible living with characterful interiors and a charming mix of formal and productive gardens. With a large kitchen featuring a central island and Heritage range, a vaulted living room with mezzanine dining gallery, and a conservatory overlooking the grounds, the home delivers both scope and serenity. Three bedrooms are arranged around a central hall, while a 10mx4m detached garage (with inspection pit), outbuildings, ample parking and an impressive working garden provide the ideal blend of practicality and privacy. The property may be best suited to buyers seeking a project - and offers exciting scope for improvement or redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents.

Ground Floor
The main entrance opens into a vestibule and through to a central hallway, off which lie three bedrooms with built in storage and a family bathroom with bath, glazed screen, and full tiling. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite WC/shower. A separate utility room is located beside the kitchen. The rear of the property opens into a stunning vaulted reception room with freestanding wood burner, built-in shelving and stair access to a mezzanine gallery. This in turn leads into a fully glazed conservatory with panoramic views over the garden. The kitchen is particularly generous, with multiple skylights, fitted cabinetry, dual sinks, an island unit and a red Heritage range cooker which supplies hot water and heating to radiators.

First Floor
A timber staircase from the reception room leads up to the mezzanine dining level above the kitchen, served by a 'dumb waiter', lit by four Velux windows, a rear landscape-style window and charming timber balustrade - a delightful space with potential for alternative use.

The Grounds
The property is set back behind a traditional stone wall with a gated drive providing plentiful parking and access to a detached garage. The front garden is bordered by mature planting, while to the rear the gardens are divided into four distinct areas: A paved patio and level lawn with well-stocked borders and a range of outbuildings; a second lawn bordered by mature shrubs and trees; a productive vegetable and soft fruit garden with compost bays, four greenhouses and two implement sheds; and beyond this, a large lawned space with orchard planting, all enclosed by hedging and fencing. An impressive 6,000 litres of rainwater storage. The grounds measure just over half an acre in total and offer an exceptional level of privacy and usability.

Potential Development
The property and substantial plot offer potential development scope, and is to be sold with a relevant Overage Clause to be confirmed by the vendors. With its generous and level plot measuring in excess of 0.5 acres, the property offers notable potential for redevelopment, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents. Preliminary discussions suggest scope for the construction of up to four new dwellings on site, making this a compelling opportunity for developers or those seeking to create multiple residences in a well-connected and thriving Cornish village setting. All interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries with the local planning authority.

The Situation
Situated in a quiet, well-established residential area, the property enjoys a tucked-away feel yet remains within easy reach of village amenities, bus routes, two local primary schools and children's play areas. The surrounding area offers a vibrant community atmosphere and excellent access to coast, countryside and neighbouring towns with Mount Edgcumbe Country Park and the twin seaside villages of Kingsand and Cawsand within 2 miles and the 4 mile long Whitsand Bay life-guarded beach just a bit further away - a highly desirable location for families, gardeners and developers alike.
