2 bed semi-detached bungalow for sale

Minton Close, St. Austell PL25

Sold via Secure Sale online bidding. Terms & Conditions apply. Starting Bid £220,000

Set on an exceptionally large plot in a tucked-away corner of a quiet residential close, this two-bedroom bungalow presents a rare opportunity for developers or buyers looking to unlock the full potential of a sizeable site. Viewings are essential to appreciate the scale and future possibilities.

In need of full updating throughout, the bungalow itself currently offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, a central bathroom, a kitchen, and a living area, all of which require modernisation. The existing layout is simple and functional, giving a solid footprint for those seeking to refurbish or reconfigure. With its single-storey design and detached position, the current property could be brought back to life as a comfortable home, downsizer retreat, or rental investment.

However, the real value lies in the land. The plot is unusually large for the area, with significant space surrounding the property that opens up a wide range of possibilities. For developers, there is clear potential (subject to planning permission) to add another property on site, whether a second bungalow or a small house, making this an appealing project with scope for strong return on investment. Alternatively, buyers with a long-term vision could explore extending the current footprint or building a bespoke home while retaining generous garden space. The plot also offers ample room for multiple vehicle parking, garden structures, or additional outdoor space depending on the buyer’s needs.

Minton Close is a quiet and well-established residential road, ideally located for easy access into the centre of St Austell. Local amenities, supermarkets, health services, and schools are all nearby, making the location practical for a wide range of buyers. Road and public transport links connect well with the wider area, including nearby beaches and countryside, adding to the long-term appeal of any development or refurbished home here. For those seeking a project with real value and vision, this property is a must-see.
