General Remarks And Location - Hideaway was originally built in the mid-1960's as an ancillary dwelling to Tregongon Farm. It fronts the minor country road in the hamlet of Tregongon and has two large fields adjacent extending to almost 13 acres and both having direct access from the roadway. The bungalow affords 3 bedroom accommodation and whilst it is acknowledged that the accommodation is somewhat basic there is tremendous opportunity to remodel or even replace the structure with a more sizeable and prestigious dwelling. Whilst there are no farm buildings within the overall site there is plenty of scope to erect stables or an agricultural building, subject to the necessary planning consent.

Tregongon is a small hamlet with a mere handful of individual properties. It is located just off the A3078 Truro to St Mawes road, central to all the scenic attractions of the Roseland Peninsula and the Cathedral city of Truro and St. Austell both about twelve miles away and within twenty minutes driving distance. The nearest villages of Tregony and Veryan are both within three miles, offering excellent every day facilities including public houses, shops and post office, churches, primary school as well as a secondary school at Tregony. Sandy beaches are very close at Pendower and Carne (2-3miles) and the harbour village of St.Mawes is within a short drive. The tiny village of Ruanlanihorne is within a mile and a half and here there is an ancient church and a popular pub. The whole of the Roseland peninsula is recognised as being of outstanding natural beauty and there are fabulous cliff top walks along the coast. The King Harry ferry provides an alternative link to Truro, whilst St. Mawes has a pedestrian ferry to Falmouth.

The Bungalow - The bungalow is of pre-cast concrete panel construction with rendered elevations under a concrete tiled roof. Windows have replacement double glazing and there is background heating through several night storage heaters in addition to an open fireplace in the sitting room.
The dwelling is believed to have originally been constructed subject to an agricultural occupancy condition but for the last 25 years it has been utilised for holiday letting and more recently long-term Assured Shorthold Tenancies. A recent planning application submitted by the owners has obtained a Certificate of Lawfulness for the breach of the original restriction and hence legitimising its current use.
Due to the nature of the construction the property is UNLIKELY TO BE MORTGAGEABLE and therefore it is only available to CASH BUYERS. It is currently occupied by tenants under the terms of an Assured Shorthold Tenancy and further details of this and a copy of the tenancy agreement are available from the agents.
