General Remarks And Location - It is unusual to find a relatively-modern property in a convenient village location with such a large plot of land. Minerva is believed to have been built in the 1960's and whilst substantially built in cavity block under a concrete tiled roof it is now in need of refurbishment with emphasis on rewiring, re-plumbing and refitting of kitchen and shower room areas. However it affords tremendous scope for updating, remodelling, extension or possible redevelopment with one or more dwellings, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consent. The site presently has two access points for vehicles, one from Tregony Hill and another from Frog Lane at the rear and there is parking space for several vehicles. The bungalow also enjoys fabulous views over the Fal valley.

Tregony - Tregony is a thriving community, sometimes referred to as the "gateway to the Roseland" and offering wide variety of amenities including a post office and shop, pub, Churches and both primary and secondary schools all within walking distance. The village is easily accessible to the whole of the Roseland Peninsula and hence very much a centre for tourism during the summer months. The city of Truro is about seven miles and St. Austell slightly further. The village also has the benefit of a regular bus service. The harbourside villages of Portloe and Portscatho are each about four and seven miles distant, and St Mawes is about 11 miles to the south.

The property lies within the designated Conservation Area of the village.

The Bungalow - The bungalow has replacement double glazing and cavity wall insulation. Various electric storage heaters provide background heating.
A window in the gable elevation suggests the possibility of extending the accommodation into the roof space, subject to the necessary consents.
