Midway Drive, Truro, TR1

An exciting opportunity to acquire a detached three-bedroom bungalow occupying a generous corner plot in the highly desirable Midway Drive area of Truro. Offered for sale with NO ONWARD CHAIN, this is a property with genuine scope to create something exceptional.

A home with space, privacy, gardens, parking, a double garage and — perhaps most importantly — the opportunity to make it entirely your own.

For those with vision, properties like this can be particularly rewarding. The accommodation is perfectly liveable while improvements are undertaken, allowing the next owner to move in, take their time and transform the property around their own lifestyle, rather than taking on everything at once.

And with the potential to consider extending the accommodation, subject to the appropriate planning permissions and consents, the possibilities are certainly worth exploring.

A HOME WITH THE INGREDIENTS THAT ARE INCREASINGLY HARD TO FIND

Detached. Three bedrooms. Corner plot. Large wraparound gardens. Double garage. Extensive driveway parking. No onward chain.

That combination alone makes this an interesting proposition.

Set back within its plot, the property enjoys a feeling of space rarely associated with homes so conveniently positioned for Truro. Mature gardens wrap around the bungalow, while the substantial driveway provides parking for several vehicles before leading to the impressive double garage.

Whether your priority is creating a sophisticated contemporary bungalow, a comfortable long-term home, a downsizer with exceptional outdoor space or a project with the potential to add value, this property provides an unusually versatile starting point.

WELCOMING RECEPTION ACCOMMODATION

Entering through the front door, the hallway provides a natural introduction to the accommodation and leads through to the principal living spaces and bedrooms.

The generous living room is an inviting space, centred around a feature fireplace and enjoying a large double-glazed window overlooking the front garden.

From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the dining area, where a further window overlooks the rear garden and provides attractive partial views towards the city, framed by the mature trees.

With the right vision, these interconnected reception spaces could become a particularly impressive entertaining environment.

KITCHEN & BREAKFAST ROOM

The kitchen/breakfast room currently features a range of wood wall and base units together with a built-in double oven and grill.

There is provision for a fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, while a useful pantry cupboard provides additional storage.

A door leads directly from the kitchen into the rear garden, creating a practical connection between the house and outside space.

For a future owner undertaking a renovation, this area offers an obvious opportunity to introduce a more contemporary kitchen and create a stylish heart of the home.

THREE BEDROOMS & SUNROOM

The property provides three good-sized bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for modern living.

Depending on individual requirements, the rooms could accommodate family bedrooms, guest accommodation, a dedicated home office or hobby space.

The sunroom provides an additional versatile reception area and opens directly onto the patio.

This could become one of those spaces that naturally evolves with the seasons — a quiet morning coffee spot, a place to unwind with a book or an informal entertaining area opening onto the garden during warmer months.

A GARDEN WITH SPACE TO CREATE SOMETHING SPECIAL

The gardens are undoubtedly one of the property’s standout features.

Occupying a generous corner plot, the wraparound garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enjoys established planting, mature trees, attractive flowers and shrubs.

There are already areas designated for BBQs and outdoor seating, providing the foundations for enjoyable summer entertaining.

For the keen gardener or landscaping enthusiast, however, the real attraction is the opportunity.

The garden could be transformed into a beautifully landscaped private retreat with defined entertaining areas, planting schemes, lawns and secluded corners — or simply enjoyed as a substantial piece of outdoor space exactly as it is.

Two garden sheds to the rear provide useful storage.

DOUBLE GARAGE & SUBSTANTIAL PARKING

The property continues to impress outside with a long gravel driveway providing parking for several vehicles.

The driveway leads to a double garage, offering considerable flexibility for storage, vehicles, workshop space or hobbies.

For anyone searching for a bungalow where parking is not an afterthought, this is a particularly valuable feature.

THE OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE YOUR OWN VISION

Perhaps the most compelling aspect of this property is its potential.

This is not a finished, turnkey home — and that is precisely the attraction.

For the right purchaser, it represents a chance to take an established detached bungalow and create something that reflects their own taste, priorities and lifestyle.

There is scope to modernise the existing accommodation, reconfigure spaces and explore the possibility of extending the property outwards or potentially upwards, subject to planning permission and all necessary consents.

Importantly, the property can be lived in while works are undertaken, providing the flexibility to improve it in stages.

In other words, the next chapter is yours to write.

THE TRURO LIFESTYLE

Midway Drive enjoys a convenient position within Truro, with Waitrose within easy walking distance.

Truro provides an exceptional mix of everyday convenience, culture and leisure. The city offers an extensive selection of independent shops, boutiques, cafés, bars and restaurants, alongside supermarkets, professional services and healthcare facilities.

The historic centre, with its cobbled streets and riverside walks, provides a characterful setting for city life, while Hall for Cornwall and the local cinema provide entertainment close to home.

There is a good choice of schooling nearby, including Archbishop Benson Primary School, Penair School and Truro School.

The wider city provides access to larger retail destinations, the Royal Cornwall Hospital, national rail connections and transport links towards Cornwall’s airports and beyond.
