Offered for sale with no onward chain is this three bedroomed dormer bungalow set back from the road, on a good sized plot and enjoying delightful, elevated views to the rear. Set within a pleasant cul-de-sac, the property is in a sought after area and within walking distance of the local nursery and infants school as well as Redruth town centre. In need of some modernisation, this property would make an ideal family home. It is spacious and airy, from a generous hallway on entry, through to the double aspect lounge/living room that runs the full depth of the house, allowing lots of natural light to flood in. An interconnecting dining room joins the lounge with the hallway which in turn, gives access to the kitchen which is in a partial u-shaped format. There is a very useful utility room, with a separate toilet, from the kitchen which gives access to both the front and rear of the property. There is a bedroom off the hallway on the ground floor with a built-in wardrobe and to the first floor, there are two further good sized bedrooms, one of which enjoys far reaching views of Carn Marth, the second highest point in the county, whilst the other enjoys elevated views over the town and towards the North Cornish coast beyond. The family bathroom is also found on the first floor. Externally, a degree of privacy is achieved through a front hedged border. The front garden is south west facing and is a primarily laid to lawn garden with mature shrubbed borders. The adjacent driveway offers parking for three cars and this leads down to a single garage with an electric up and over door. Access to the rear garden is adjacent to the garage. This is laid to lawn with a diagonal pathway through the middle and borders of mature shaped hedging at the rear. There is a traditional walled border to one side and a block built wall to the other. Location wise, for local amenities, Redruth town centre is within walking distance or a short drive and has both independent and chain shops, cafes, a cinema and public houses. A main line railway station gives links to London and bus services to Truro and Falmouth and is also within walking distance. Further afield, Portreath Beach, on the North coast, with its access to the South West Coastal Path is within fifteen minutes drive as is Tehidy Country Park, the largest area of woodland in West Cornwall and many other local beaches and attractions are also accessible.
