Summer-Court may be one of the most deceiving properties we have ever listed. One could be forgiven from a cursory viewing from the road for believing this to be a modest 1970’s detached bungalow - but once inside all is soon revealed.
The current owners have set about an incredibly thorough and extensive renovation which also involved a substantial rear extension and have converted the roof space in order to create this very special home.
Now providing a near 1,750 sqft 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 2 reception room accommodation which is beautifully presented and cleverly designed throughout. From the super countryside views and convenient location, to the stunning kitchen and cosy living room - this family home truly ticks all the boxes.
The accommodation comprises a good size entrance porch, with a bench seat to one side and hanging coat rails and shoe storage to the other. Immediately upon entering you can see the properties meticulous finish and wonderful flow. From the hall, which connects to all of the downstairs rooms and has integral storage to one side, the first two rooms you approach are bedrooms 2 and 3, which are both great size double bedrooms with natural light, carpeted flooring and have plenty of space for further furniture if needed. Bedroom 3 benefits from a handy under-stair storage cupboard which could act as a small built in wardrobe. All the doorways to each room downstairs have been slightly widened enabling for further space for wheelchair access.
Further down the hall, stairs lead to the first floor and a doorway leads to the kitchen/dining room, separate sitting room and family bathroom. The kitchen, which is clearly the hub and heart of the home is a truly wonderful space which has been so well thought about in its design. A stunning central island splits this glorious room well, with a large 8 seater dining table and double doors leading to the rear garden to one side and an array of bespoke shaker style base and eye level units with granite worktops to the other. The mix and match colour scheme, cleverly positioned pantry cupboard, multiple integral appliances and storage shelving with down lights create a modern but extremely vibrant and classy space - perfect for entertaining family and friends.
From here, a further doorway leads to the properties large utility room which currently houses white gloss base level units with under counter storage space for a washing machine and tumble dryer and has a doorway leading to the garage and another to the rear garden.
The sitting room is yet another stylish, but this time incredibly cosy, room. With double doors leading to the rear garden, oval panel vertical radiator, carpeted flooring and a large standalone feature fireplace with internal to external flue.
The family bathroom is a beautifully designed and well appointed 4 piece suite thanks to the mix and match tile effect flooring, a curved twin-end panelled bath, tiled walls with inset shelving and downlight, wash hand basin with storage cupboard surrounds, ladder style radiator and a large walk in shower - all lit by a glazed window allowing in plenty of natural light.
Upstairs our clients have not only created a large principal bedroom but also a good size and extremely versatile space currently being used as an office/study area. This space which is a double aspect room, has a useful storage area, a stunning oak and glass balustrade and benefits from truly fantastic countryside views. From here, a doorway leads to the principal bedroom.
The principal bedroom, which measures 14’4 x 13’4 has a large cloak cupboard, large walk in wardrobe and a well appointed principle en suite shower room - all whilst benefitting from the same superb views as the office/study space.
To the front of the property a large driveway, which has plenty of space for 4/5 vehicles plus access to the properties garage and access to the rear garden via either side gate.
The rear garden is truly any gardeners dream - from its array of fruit trees, its large level lawn, an outdoor dining area, multiple raised beds and a feature pergola - this garden truly has it all. Thanks to the broadness and sheer size of the garden, the sun hits the garden for the majority of the day and even has space for a large shed and storage areas.
In all - a truly special home. A viewing is whole heartedly recommended to truly appreciate it.

Located on the outskirts of Truro only 2 miles (5 minute drive) from the city centre whilst feeling very much part of the surrounding countryside. The village has great amenities including public house, village hall, convenience store and veterinary practice. In terms of schooling there is a primary school within the village and a choice of secondary schools in Truro as well as Penwith college campus around 2.5 miles away. Heading out of town you’ll be on to the A30 in less than 5 minutes and there are excellent transport links with bus stops from the centre of the village heading in either direction on a regular basis. The countryside really is on your doorstep here in all directions but a particular highlight is a nature reserve and large playing field within the village as well as the beautiful Idless Woods only around a mile away offering stunning walking and bike riding opportunities.
