5 bed detached house for sale

Scotland Road, Truro, Zelah TR4

Welcome to Meadow House — a truly exceptional five-bedroom detached residence, positioned on an expansive plot in the highly sought-after village of Zelah, just minutes from Truro. Built in 2016 and thoughtfully extended in 2023 to include a luxurious self-contained annexe, this outstanding family home offers over 3,100 sq ft of flexible, high-spec living space, combining contemporary comfort with eco-conscious design and lifestyle versatility.

Set behind a wide driveway with parking for several vehicles, Meadow House makes an immediate impression with its handsome proportions, private setting, and beautifully maintained exterior. From the very first step through the door, the quality of finish and sheer scale of this property becomes clear. Every detail has been carefully considered, and the result is a home that is both incredibly functional and effortlessly stylish.

At the heart of the house is a stunning open-plan ground floor, served by a Valliant air source heat pump, underfloor heating throughout, and individual room-by-room thermostats for ultimate comfort and efficiency. The main living room is a generous, elegant space with large windows, a feature log burner, and a flowing connection to the formal dining area—perfect for both relaxed evenings and entertaining on a grand scale.

The kitchen is as practical as it is stylish, with sleek cabinetry, ample work surfaces, and space for a central island or breakfast table. A separate utility room ensures the day-to-day running of the household remains neatly out of sight, and two additional flexible reception spaces—currently used as a playroom and a snug—offer endless potential for home working, games rooms, or quiet retreats.

Upstairs, the main residence features five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a luxurious principal suite complete with a stylish en-suite shower room and far-reaching countryside views. The remaining bedrooms are all generously sized, offering flexibility for family members, guests, or home working, and are served by a spacious, well-appointed family bathroom. Natural light flows throughout, and thoughtful design ensures every room feels comfortable and calm, with ample storage and room to grow.

One of Meadow House’s most remarkable features is the substantial detached double garage, constructed in 2023 and finished to a superb standard. Not only does it provide excellent secure storage and workshop space, but above it you’ll find a fully self-contained annexe—complete with a modern kitchen/reception room, bedroom, and shower room. With its own heating, hot water, and separate access, this annexe is ideal for multi-generational living, a guest suite, or even holiday letting (STPP). Below, the garage also houses a utility room and dedicated office, offering a seamless blend of live/work functionality.

Eco-conscious buyers will be especially drawn to the property’s sustainability features. Meadow House is fitted with 16 owned solar panels, along with a System iBoost that diverts excess energy to heat water, significantly reducing running costs. The air source heating system is highly efficient and combined with underfloor heating, delivers both warmth and eco performance. With an EPC rating reflective of its modern construction and green upgrades, Meadow House is both a future-proof investment and a comfortable place to live year-round.

Outside, the home continues to impress. The large rear garden offers space, privacy, and further potential. Whether you’re dreaming of a home office, studio, workshop, or even exploring options for additional accommodation (STPP), the space is there to grow with your vision. The garden itself is perfect for family life, with plenty of lawned space for children to play, pets to roam, or to entertain guests on warm summer days.

Tucked away in the peaceful and well-connected village of Zelah, Meadow House enjoys a semi-rural position with easy access to Truro, the A30, and Cornwall’s beautiful north coast beaches. The community is friendly and well-established, with countryside walks on your doorstep, and excellent local schools, amenities and transport links all within easy reach.
