Occupying an elevated position overlooking the north coastal village of Portreath, this well-appointed detached bungalow is sheltered from the prevailing westerlys. Having been in the same ownership for twenty five years, ‘True North’ offers versatile living accommodation for the larger family and there is potential to create an annexe for a dependent relative or possibly letting purposes.
Many of the rooms within the bungalow enjoy an outlook towards the coast, across the village and towards countryside.
Presented to a high standard throughout there are four double size bedrooms with the principal bedroom having an en-suite. The lounge has a superb coastal outlook, there is a snug which may suit those wishing to work from home and the dining conservatory enjoys a sunny aspect and is ideal for use throughout the year.
The dining conservatory forms a link between the snug and kitchen breakfast room. The kitchen breakfast room being well appointed featuring an island bar with granite worktops and focusing on a Rangemaster stove and the bathroom and separate WC were upgraded in 2021.

There is untapped potential, subject to the usual consents to convert the generous loft into additional living space which would benefit from a coastal and rural outlook.

The third area set to the rear offers a private and discreet space for alfresco dining. Set down to the side is a further garden with raised beds ideal for vegetables etc and there is a private mainly lawned garden. In addition to the detached garage, one will find a workshop with double doors, with power and light connected, this would make the ideal ‘man cave’.
