Busveal, Redruth

Situated in a lovely rural area close to the historic Gwennap Pit, this modern detached bungalow offers well presented living accommodation with two bedrooms, a large lounge/diner, a fitted kitchen, a shower room and a sun room/utility. The property is double glazed and this is complemented by oil heating. Externally there are mature well stocked gardens, a driveway providing parking and turning facilities leading to a garage and the bonus of four outbuildings.

Seythfold is a detached bungalow built in 1970 benefiting from a large plot and an extensive range of outbuildings. It is located in the hamlet of Busveal, a very popular area steeped in local history but still within easy reach of Redruth, Camborne, St Day with the train station, local bus routes and the A30 only minutes away.

This spacious bungalow has a long lounge/diner, a kitchen, a family bathroom and two double bedrooms, one with a range of fitted wardrobes. It is double glazed and the heating is via a Grant oil boiler. Hot water is provided by an oil fired Rayburn stove in the kitchen and there is also a hot water cylinder with an immersion heater as well as facilities for a modern cooker and appliances. To the rear of the kitchen there is a useful sun room/utility with additional space for white goods. Externally a driveway provides turning and parking facilities leading to a garage.

The front garden has been thoughtfully and carefully laid out, mainly lawned and being enclosed with a golden gravel area ideal for pots etc. To the rear there are four timber outbuildings, two of which are of generous proportions with power and light. Behind the garage the outbuilding is also an observatory, with sliding roof and full facilities for stargazing, including a plinth for a telescope. The rear garden is well enclosed with flower borders etc. The largest outbuilding is 18 months old and has been designed to be versatile, in that it could easily be transformed into a garden room, man cave, hobby shed or even guest facilities. The property itself is set in a generous plot, with the opportunity to provide additional accommodation in the roof space or extend subject to the necessary permissions.

Busveal is surrounded by spectacular countryside and views, with many footpaths and byways, including the historic Mining Trail to explore. As such it is a haven for walking and exploring the local and wider Cornish countryside, with quite roads and plenty of places for cycling, horse riding and dog walking, with the popular Star Inn just a short walk down the hill. Seythfold is one of several detached residential properties in Busveal situated close to the historic Gwennap Pit where John Wesley used to preach. The property itself is nestled within open countryside, between the old Cathedral mine, a neighbouring working farm and livery, as well as various paddocks and smallholdings nearby, with all the sights and sounds of living in a vibrant countryside setting. Some of the unique local activities include St Day Feast, motorsport events at The Star like The Flora Trial, St Day Football Club (The Saints), popular outdoor services and religious events at Gwennap Pit and visitor centre and the livery has local ride outs and a clean boot hunt group.

To summarise, we feel this is an interesting proposition for someone who enjoys a large but easily maintained garden, requires a good range of outbuildings and wants to soak up all of the atmosphere of the countryside and the varied local activities and history nearby.
