About this home

A well presented three-bedroom detached bungalow with a substantial self-contained annexe, generous private gardens, extensive parking and a large garage, tucked away in a highly convenient position on the southern side of Truro. VIEWINGS STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT.

Why You'll Like It - Located in this established, non-estate setting, 72 Highertown is a particularly appealing detached bungalow offering spacious, light and versatile accommodation, together with the considerable advantage of a detached barn conversion-style annexe.

Having been thoughtfully renovated and modernised by the current owners, the main house is presented in excellent order and offers a lovely combination of comfortable living space and practical accommodation. The location is especially convenient, being within easy reach of Truro city centre, the railway station and the Royal Cornwall Hospital, making this an excellent choice for a wide range of buyers.

The accommodation begins with a large entrance reception/utility room, providing an exceptionally useful everyday space. From here, the property opens into a generous kitchen/dining room, while the spacious sitting room provides a comfortable principal reception space with plenty of natural light.

There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, together with a family bathroom and a separate shower room, providing excellent flexibility for modern family living or those requiring additional facilities.

Outside, the property really comes into its own. The substantial rear garden enjoys a good degree of privacy and is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by areas of sun terrace, mature planting and established shrubs. It provides a peaceful and surprisingly private setting in which to relax and entertain.

The detached barn conversion/self-contained annexe adds an exceptional further dimension to the property. Arranged over two floors, the ground floor provides an open-plan kitchen/living area and shower room, with a separate bedroom occupying the first floor. This versatile accommodation could prove ideal for a dependent relative, older children, guests or those looking for potential supplementary income, subject of course to any necessary consents.

To the front, a brick-paved driveway provides parking for numerous vehicles, alongside a substantial garage offering excellent storage and further practical space.

Overall, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious and versatile detached bungalow with genuine additional accommodation, generous gardens and excellent parking, all in a tucked-away position within easy reach of the many amenities and transport links that make this side of Truro so popular.

Where It Is - Conveniently located in Highertown, just along from County Hall, Sainsbury's & Lidl Supermarket, the location is superb for those requiring easy access to the city centre or the A390 out towards the hospital and college. The number 18 bus stops nearby providing a link between the city and Redruth and runs frequently. The mainline train station is close by with a regular service to London and the north. Access to the Royal Cornwall Hospital less than a mile away is simple whether on foot, by bike, by car or bus. For rural walks there is a beautiful trail which can be accessed across the road opposite by the County Arms and this pathway joins the old railway line to Newham making a lovely scenic walk or run route to Truro.

Services And Tenure - The tenure is freehold. Both properties are on the same title. Mains water, electricity, drainage and gas. Council tax band D. The annex is separately rated band A
