GENERAL COMMENTS

Meadowside offers a wonderful opportunity to purchase a 5.5 acre small holding conveniently positioned on the edge of Truro with easy access onto the A30.

The cottage has been a cherished home for many years however it is fair to say that it is now in need of some general updating and modernisation although there is huge potential to extend or redevelop the property.

The property is likely to appeal to an equestrian buyer with three good stables and a level 5 acre field with hedged boundaries, all of which can be seen directly from the kitchen.

To the front of the cottage lies an area of garden which has previously been used as a small caravan site and therefore offers a potential income.

Properties such as this are seldom in todays market and will undoubtedly be of interest to local and out of county buyers.
