Situation - Cathedral Bungalow is situated in the small hamlet of Busveal, mid way between the towns of Carharrack and Redruth and a short distance from the popular village of St.Day. With easy access to an extensive network of scenic footpaths and trails, this delightful cottage is situated in a World Heritage Site in an area that in the 18th and 19th Centuries, thanks to tin and copper mining, was regarded as one of the richest districts in the old world.

Around 7 miles from both coasts and readily accessible to Truro, Falmouth and the A30, this central position remains sought after to this day. The north coast has great sandy surfing beaches (the nearest is Porthtowan) whilst the south has the sailing waters of the Carrick Roads at Falmouth or Mylor Yacht Harbour.

Nearby villages all provide a range of local facilities whilst the Cathedral City of Truro is a vibrant shopping centre with many national retailers represented. There are mainline railway stations at both Redruth and Truro connecting with London Paddington.

The Property - Cathedral Bungalow is available for the first time in 35 years and offers a good opportunity for modernisation. The property offers generous and well-appointed accommodation, divided into two distinct sections accessible from a central hallway that connects to both the front and rear gardens.

The first part of the property features a spacious dual-aspect living room, adorned with ornate wooden and stained glass doors that lead to a large kitchen/dining room. All rooms enjoy views extending over the property’s gardens and into the nearby woodlands.

The second section of the bungalow, also accessible from the central hallway, includes four double bedrooms one of which has an en-suite bathroom. The family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. One of the bedrooms benefits from sliding patio doors that open directly onto the front garden.

Garage Workshop - Detached from the main house, there is a substantial block and timber workshop with an open-fronted garage that provides sheltered parking for two vehicles.

Adjacent to this is a spacious workshop with power and water connections, which could be repurposed as an office or studio, offering exceptional flexibility for various uses.

The first floor of this workshop has been fitted out to provide additional accommodation, extending the functionality of the main house.

Outside - Set in over an acre of gardens and woodland, Cathedral Bungalow offers a high degree of privacy with expansive lawns and former vegetable plots.

The grounds also include a former cottage, which now consists of only a few low walls. This structure presents potential, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions and consents.

Barn - At the rear of the property’s gardens is a substantial barn, formerly used as a tractor shed. This space provides extensive storage, with a mezzanine area that is ideal for use as a large workshop or for vehicle storage.
