We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

Why You'll Like It - Tucked away on a generous corner plot in a peaceful cul-de-sac, close to the ever-popular Higher Town area of Truro, this spacious two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers a wonderful combination of space, privacy, and exciting potential.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the ample driveway parking and the added benefit of a garage with a useful workshop or utility area to the rear—perfect for hobbies, storage, or practical day-to-day use.
Inside, the bungalow is well-proportioned and light-filled.
The welcoming entrance hallway leads through to a particularly generous living room, where a large picture window frames a lovely outlook over the garden, and a feature fireplace creates a cosy focal point.
The kitchen/dining room is a sociable space with a fitted kitchen and breakfast bar, ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike.
To the rear, a double glazed conservatory provides an additional reception area, enjoying plenty of natural light from multiple opening windows and French doors that lead out to the garden—perfect for relaxing while overlooking the greenery.
There are two large bedrooms with built-in storage and a family shower room, all conveniently arranged on one level.
From the hallway, a pull-down loft ladder gives access to a partially converted attic space.
While not completed to building regulations, this area has been used previously and offers flexibility for a variety of uses, subject to any future improvements and has great potential subject to any necessary consent.
Outside, the wraparound gardens are a real highlight—beautifully maintained with mature plants, shrubs, and an attractive lawn.
A generous graveled area provides a low-maintenance spot for outdoor seating and entertaining, making the most of the plot’s sunny aspects.
