5 bed detached house to rent

Scotland Road, Zelah, Truro TR4

This is a home that gives you room to live without needing to think too much about it.

Set on the outskirts of Zelah in a semi-rural position, Meadow House feels quietly removed from things, surrounded by open fields and farmland. There’s a natural sense of space here, and a slower pace to day-to-day life, while still being within easy reach of Truro, the A30 and the north coast.

Built in 2016 and extended more recently, the house still carries that sense of a modern build. It’s well insulated, efficient, and designed in a way that supports how people actually live, rather than feeling overcomplicated.

Inside, the scale is immediately noticeable. With over 3,000 sq ft of space, the layout allows you to spread out without losing that sense of connection between rooms. It works just as well for a busy household as it does for those needing space to work from home or simply wanting more room around them.

The main living areas sit at the heart of the house and are designed to be used properly. There’s a natural flow between spaces, allowing for both quieter evenings and busier days without things feeling crowded, while still giving a sense of separation where it’s needed.

The kitchen is practical and well arranged, with plenty of workspace and storage, supported by a separate utility that keeps everyday tasks out of sight. Additional reception space adds flexibility - somewhere to work, somewhere to unwind, or somewhere to keep things contained when needed.

Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, all easy to live in and adaptable depending on your needs. The principal bedroom has its own ensuite and a more open outlook, while the remaining rooms work just as well for family life, guests or home working.

Downstairs, there is a further room that offers real flexibility. It could comfortably serve as a fifth bedroom, a home office, or a playroom, depending on how you want to use the space over time.

The house is also set up to run efficiently day to day. An air source heat pump works alongside underfloor heating across the ground floor, keeping the temperature consistent and comfortable throughout. Solar panels help offset energy use, which makes a noticeable difference over time, both in running costs and overall efficiency.

Outside, the garden gives you space to breathe. Surrounded by open countryside, it feels private without being enclosed, and there’s plenty of room for day-to-day living, whether that’s time outside, hosting, or simply enjoying the setting. A gardener is included within the tenancy, with regular visits to maintain the lawn and hedging, keeping everything looking as it should without adding to your routine.

The annexe and garage are retained separately and are not included within the tenancy, although the main house itself offers more than enough space for most households.

The location strikes a balance that’s not always easy to find. You have that semi-rural feel, with fields on your doorstep, but you’re still only a short drive from Truro for work, schools and amenities, with the north coast beaches close enough to become part of your routine.

What this home offers is space, flexibility and a setting that allows you to properly switch off at the end of the day - something that’s becoming harder to find.

The property is offered to let on an unfurnished basis.

The property will be available from 8th June 2026
