Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac location toward the end of Woodland Avenue, this three-bedroom detached bungalow presents a genuine opportunity for those seeking a project. The property is in need of comprehensive modernisation and updating throughout, including the installation of a heating system and a full refit of the kitchen and bathroom. It offers a superb "blank canvas" for a buyer looking to renovate a home to their own exacting standards.
ACCOMMODATION

Living Room:
A bright space with a large double-glazed window to the front aspect. It features a central fireplace with a hearth and mantelpiece, plus a TV point. Two steps lead down into the kitchen.
Kitchen:
Converted from the former garage, this dual-aspect room has double-glazed windows to both the front and rear. The space requires a full refit, currently comprising a basic stainless steel sink, space for a cooker and washing machine, and a double-glazed door leading to the garden.
Bedroom One:
A well-proportioned room with a double-glazed window to the front aspect.
Bedroom Two:
This room features a double-glazed window to the rear, capturing splendid views of the viaduct and countryside beyond.
Bedroom Three:

Bathroom:
Currently in a stripped-back state, comprising a basic panelled bath, pedestal wash hand basin, and low-level WC. With walls back to the plaster and exposed pipework, it is ready for a complete new suite. A double-glazed window to the rear ensures even this room enjoys the spectacular outlook across the valley.
THE EXTERIOR
The bungalow is set back from the road with a front garden that is currently overgrown, with established shrubs and hedging providing privacy. A driveway to the side provides essential off-road parking.
The rear garden is a standout feature, providing a fantastic vantage point for the far-reaching rural views and the iconic Penryn Viaduct. Currently consisting of a sloping lawn, it offers pedestrian access to both sides of the property.
THE LOCATION
Woodland Avenue is a settled and popular residential area, well-regarded for its quiet atmosphere and proximity to local schools and greenery.
