Description
Due to its construction, which is believed to be of concrete panels and is thought unlikely to be able to attract a mortgage, interest is being sought from cash purchasers.
Sitting within a generous plot approaching a fifth of an acre, the bungalow offers two bedrooms, a lounge and dining room which gives access to a conservatory which has a southerly outlook over the rear garden.
From the dining room is a fitted kitchen, utility and second WC and there is a family bathroom.
Double glazed, there is gas central heating via a combination gas boiler.
In addition to ample parking, one will find a detached garage.
Requiring some updating this bungalow, in our opinion, would appeal to developers searching for a large plot with major services connected in a popular residential area.
In summary, an unusual and somewhat unique opportunity, viewing our interactive virtual tour is strongly recommended prior to arranging a closer inspection.
South Tehidy is situated in a favoured residential area close to the nearby Tehidy Country Park which is recognised as an area of outstanding natural beauty and within a short distance is Tehidy Golf Course, the north Cornish coast will be found nearby at Portreath which is noted for its active harbour and sandy beach.
The property benefits from easy access to the A30 (the principal route to and from Cornwall) and a mainline railway station will be found at either Camborne or Redruth with direct links to London Paddington and the north of England.
The cathedral City of Truro, which is the county’s commercial, educational and retail centre, is within commuting distance as is the university town of Falmouth on the south coast. Cornwall’s airport at Newquay is within twenty seven miles.

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).
