General Remarks And Location - Robin Hill is virtually in the centre of the tiny village of Ruanlanihorne and yet it is remarkably private. It is one of three individual properties approached by a private lane (a right of way) and with the bungalow set within a relatively level plot where it takes advantage of a lovely view out over the river saltings to the far wooded banks of the upper Fal estuary. Built in the 1960's the property has recently been completely refurbished and upgraded to include refitting of the bathroom and shower room, upgrading of the kitchen as well as complete redecoration and new flooring. The garden is a particular delight and whilst carefully planted with a host of mature specimen shrubs there is still an open aspect to take advantage of the far reaching view.

Ruanlanihorne is a tiny village situated at the head of the Ruan River, in an area known for its scenic countryside and part of an area scheduled as being an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is just a pub and church within the village but the larger villages of Veryan and Tregony are near-by and easily accessible. Between them they offer a wide range of facilities including Primary and Secondary Schools, pubs, village halls, children's playing field/parks, village shops with post offices, a hairdressers, a Sports and Social Club with cricket field, tennis courts and indoor and outdoor bowling green.

The coastal village of Portscatho also offers a range of shops and facilities including a village shop with post office and off licence, butchers, art galleries and the Plume Of Feathers public house.
There is also the waterside Tatams Coffee Hut with its outside sitting area and Tatams Taverna with wood fired oven offering takeaway's. Within walking distance of Portscatho is the renowned Hidden Hut that is perched just above Porthcurnick Beach, with either takeaway or outside dining available, with the superb vista across Porthcurnick Beach and out to sea. There is also a Doctors Surgery and Village Hall.

The city of Truro with its cathedral and fine shopping centre is about 11 miles away.

Windows have replacement double glazing and there is a comprehensive system of oil fired central heating with an outside boiler. The accommodation affords 3 bedrooms, a bathroom and additional shower room, a kitchen which has an Aga and is open plan to a dining room, sitting room and also a sun lounge/conservatory.

9 Cathedral Lane, Truro, TR1 2QS

Independent, Professional Estate Agents in Cornwall

Established in 1986, Philip Martin is an independent estate and letting agency providing professional property advice across mid and west Cornwall, with offices in Truro and St Mawes.

We act for sellers of a wide range of quality property, from city and village homes to coastal and rural houses, offering clear, considered advice tailored to each individual instruction and market condition.

We believe an estate agent’s role is not simply to market property, but to advise, guide and negotiate effectively in order to achieve the best possible outcome. Philip Martin is led by RICS-qualified partners, supported by an experienced local team with detailed knowledge of Cornwall’s highly localised property markets. This professional grounding allows us to provide measured advice on pricing, presentation and strategy from the outset.

Our Truro sales office, located directly opposite the cathedral in Cathedral Lane, and our St Mawes office on the Roseland Peninsula ensure excellent local visibility and access to buyers. All properties are marketed jointly from both offices, providing strong local exposure combined with wider regional reach.

In addition to residential sales and lettings, we offer professional valuations and advice relating to probate and estate matters, taxation and insurance, divorce and litigation, as well as planning considerations and development potential. This breadth of expertise is particularly valuable for higher-value, coastal and more complex property transactions.

Philip Martin is a long-established independent Cornish agency, known for a calm, professional and strategic approach. Our focus is on providing clear advice, maintaining high professional standards and achieving the best possible result for our clients.
