Park Road, Redruth

Offered for sale with no onward chain, this Victorian semi detached house is situated in a popular location and benefits from well proportioned family living accommodation. Now in need of some updating, it has four reception areas together with a kitchen and a rear sun room. To the first floor there are three bedrooms complemented by a family shower room and the bonus of a loft room. Externally there are well stocked enclosed gardens to both front and rear with a useful block built garden shed/workshop.

After seventy five years within the same family, circumstances now dictate that the time has come for a new chapter. While the decision to sell has not been taken lightly, it opens the door for the next owners to shape their own story here. Whether you are drawn by the setting, the history or the size of the accommodation on offer, this is a rare opportunity to become the next owners of a home that occupies a prime position in one of Redruth’s most sought after areas. Coming to market chain free, this three bedroom, three reception roomed property is in need of some updating with the potential to improve and on which to put your own stamp. However, this large house does retain several original features, including high ceilings, cornices, coving and delightful Victorian geometric floor tiles throughout the hallway. It will provide substantial family accommodation and as such, an early viewing is highly recommended. On entry, the staggered hallway leads to a staircase to the first floor with the first of the three reception rooms on the right in which there is a large bay window that casts considerable natural light into the room. The second reception room sits in the middle and provides a natural flow between the dining room and kitchen to the rear, the third reception room and the hallway. The third reception has a full width decorative sideboard and from here, there is open access to the dining room which, with its southerly aspect, also serves as a rear sunroom! The double aspect dining room has French doors that lead out to the rear garden and there is open access to the galley style kitchen which has space to accommodate under counter appliances including both washing machine and dishwasher as well as a fridge and separate freezer. To the first floor, a split level switchback landing leads to the 3 bedrooms, the first of which is at the front and benefits again from the natural light cascading in the first reception room below, enjoying far reaching views in a westerly direction. This room also benefits from a full width fitted wardrobe with mirrored doors. The second bedroom sits in the middle, again with fitted wardrobes and this time benefitting from views over open countryside to the south. The third bedroom is also positioned at the front of the property with an outlook over public open space opposite the property. All three bedrooms are complimented by a family shower room with a large walk in thermostatic shower, wash hand basin set in a vanity unit with storage cupboards below and a large built in airing cupboard that houses the boiler. There is a separate WC adjacent to the shower room. Furthermore, the loft space has been converted into a very useful hobby room with sky light, lighting and power but there may be options to re-purpose should the new owner wish to do so. Externally, to the front, a gate opens from the pedestrian pavement with a decorative slabbed pathway that runs across the garden, splitting two gravelled areas with manageable mature borders. A pathway accesses a gate that leads to the rear. The rear garden is south facing and will certainly benefit from the better weather. In effect, it is divided into three with a decorative slabbed patio area with a double aspect sunroom, with lighting and power. The middle area has a synthetic grass area with adjacent pond and to the rear, there are raised planting areas with rear access into a shed come workshop with both lighting and power. There are a mixture of mature borders of bushes, plants, shrubs and trees with block and fenced borders at the rear. A side gate gives access to a pathway that leads to a gate to the front of the property. In terms of location, there are two parks/recreational areas within a short walking distance, one of which, Victoria Park is home to Redruth Bowling Club. Furthermore, there is a Co-op convenience store and a Fish and Chip shop with restaurant also within walking distance. The centre of Redruth, which has a variety of retail shops, cafes, public houses and a cinema, can also be reached on foot within fifteen minutes or so or via a short drive. The main line railway station in the town where there are also bus services to Truro, Falmouth and other destinations, is also similarly accessible. Further afield, Portreath Beach can be accessed in under twenty minutes by car as can Tehidy Country Park and Tehidy Park Golf Club. The main A30 trunk road is just over 1 mile distant. There are also many other local towns and beaches which are conveniently accessible. In addition, this is a popular area giving access to Carn Marth, the second highest point in Cornwall, which can be reached in around twenty five minutes on foot, offering countryside walks with far reaching views from coast to coast.
