Lower Nanterrow doesn't give up much at first glance, and that's fairly telling in itself — this is a small Cornish locality rather than a place with a high street identity or a name people in Truro or Bristol would recognise on sight. What you're left with is the shape of the county around it, and that's still worth reading carefully.
Cornwall as a whole sits close to the national median on house prices — the unitary authority's typical figure is only a little above the England-wide number — but it runs meaningfully cheaper than the South West region it belongs to, where prices are pulled up by Bristol, Bath and the Cotswold fringes. A property in this pocket of Cornwall is therefore likely to feel more affordable than the regional picture suggests, even if it won't look like a bargain against the national figure alone. Crime across Cornwall is also lower than the England average rate, which matters more here than most places, since a locality like this has no data of its own to fall back on — you're really buying into the county's character rather than a specific street's track record.
That's about as far as the honest picture goes without inventing detail that isn't there. No school, station, park or crime breakdown has been recorded against Lower Nanterrow itself, so I won't pretend to know whether you'd walk to a good primary or drive twenty minutes for one, whether the trains are useful, or what a Saturday actually looks like on the ground. What can be said is that it sits inside a county that reads as safer than the national picture and priced sensibly against its own region, which is a reasonable starting signal — but anyone weighing a move here should treat this as the outline of the county, not a portrait of the place, and dig into the immediate street and parish before deciding.
