Fraddon, St. Columb, TR9

Discover Shangrila in Fraddon, a magnificent, detached bungalow nestled in the sought-after mid-county village. Adjacent to Indian Queens and St. Columb Road, this area forms a cohesive community that is both practical and well-connected. The strategic location places you within a short drive of Cornwall’s most desirable towns, including the vibrant coastal town of Newquay, just 7 miles away, known for its stunning coastline. The villages offer a serene pace of life while providing all daily essentials: a local park, a primary school, various shops, village pubs, takeaways, and the renowned Kingsley Village with its M&S superstore.

Shangrila stands out as one of the finest bungalows in the area, thanks to a comprehensive renovation by the current owners and its expansive plot that surrounds the bungalow. The property boasts proportions rarely seen, with a footprint larger than most three or four-bedroom homes in the area. A gated entrance opens to a sweeping driveway with ample secure off-street parking. The front gardens feature two seating areas: a low-maintenance stone-chipped area and a lawn with a shaded bench under a mature tree. Gated access to the rear and the main entrance of the bungalow leads to a small, useful porch opening into a large hallway with loft access and storage.

The star of the show is the open plan living space, consisting of four interconnected areas that flow seamlessly, measuring a whopping 40 feet in length. The living room is flooded with light from triple aspect windows, offering stunning far-reaching country views. There is ample room for living and dining furniture, complemented by a recessed flat-panel wall-mounted electric flame-effect fireplace and fitted media storage wall perfect for a large flat-screen TV and associated equipment without unsightly wires on show. The space flows into the kitchen, which shares the view. The kitchen features a stunning range of sleek grey units and real oak work surfaces, complemented by a full range of designer appliances. There is a sunny dining area with rear garden access and a garden-facing snug for a cosy secondary reception area, which also has the potential to be converted into a third bedroom if needed.

Both bedrooms are generously sized doubles, and the main bathroom has been fully refitted with a contemporary double shower suite, complete with a bowl sink and hidden cistern WC within matching vanity units, topped off with a feature Velux skylight. The home is immaculate throughout. In early 2024, the central heating was upgraded to top-of-the-range air source heating, supplemented by owned solar panels and cavity insulation, making this a highly economical home to run.

The rear gardens are another standout feature, with a neat lawn, an alfresco dining deck, and a secondary sunset deck with a pergola, all enclosed by high fencing for privacy and bathed in sunshine throughout the day and early evening. At the foot of the garden, there is a detached garden cabin partially converted into a garden annex, complete with a WC and facilities for shower connection. There is also a useful utility area with plumbing and access to a large workshop, offering amazing potential for a variety of uses.

This truly is one of the best properties of its type you’re likely to see. Book your viewing without delay; you won’t be disappointed.
