Description
Hunkin Homes presents this four-bedroom detached bungalow in Cormorant Drive, St Austell. The accommodation combines the original property with an extension, and the listing notes that the older part may benefit from modernisation. The layout includes an entrance hall with storage, a front lounge/diner and a rear kitchen/diner opening onto a patio. Two bedrooms also have access to the outdoor space, while a further room connects to an additional area that could be reconfigured to provide access from the hall. A family bathroom and separate wet room complete the accommodation.
The gardens are arranged on two levels, with a patio above a lawned area that also includes a vegetable plot, sheds and a greenhouse. The property has a garage, off-road parking, gas central heating and front and rear gardens. St Austell town centre is around a mile away, with local amenities and a mainline railway station. Charlestown, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project are also within reach.

50out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This detached bungalow has a useful canvas: four bedrooms, a garage, parking and a two-level garden, with patio access from the kitchen and some bedrooms. Much of the visible living space looks usable, while the dated kitchen and distinctive old-fashioned bathroom finishes, plus tired garden surfaces, offer clear scope to modernise and make the outdoor space more inviting. The pitched roof shows no obvious major issue in the photos.
At £280,000, the asking price is slightly above the local £/sqf benchmark rather than a value-led entry point. With the estimated £12,000–£25,000 of works, purchase plus refurbishment costs also look tight against local benchmarks, so the project’s appeal rests on the improvements you can deliver rather than an obvious discount.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated kitchen to modernise a generous kitchen/diner with access to the patio.
- Update the old-fashioned family bathroom finishes while retaining the separate practical wet room.
- Improve the two-level garden by clearing the lower area and refreshing worn paving and the weathered shed.
