Description
Full Description
This attractive two double bedroom link-detached home provides modern, easy-flow living, ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a low-maintenance property in a convenient Bodmin location.
The heart of the home is the spacious open-plan living area, designed to maximise light and practicality, offering a comfortable lounge, dining, and kitchen space perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, two well-proportioned double bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, complemented by a family bathroom.
Externally, the property benefits from a good sized private garden, ideal for relaxing, outdoor dining, or family use. It is currently a blank canvas and would love the touch of a keen gardener, or a toddler kicking a football.
Garage plus driveway parking for two vehicles adds further everyday convenience.
Situated within easy reach of Bodmin’s shops, schools, and transport connections, while also being close to surrounding countryside walks and coastal routes, this home combines accessibility with lifestyle appeal.
Highfield Park is well positioned for access to Bodmin town centre, local schools, everyday amenities, and key transport links, making it a practical and appealing choice for those seeking connectivity alongside neighbourhood convenience.
Early viewing is recommended.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
