Talastone doesn't give up much at a glance, and in truth there isn't a great deal on record to describe the streets themselves — no local crime figures, school results, or transport counts have been returned for this particular patch, so it would be dishonest to paint a scene of a high street or a commute that isn't backed by anything.
What can be said sits at the Cornwall level, where Talastone is registered. The county's median house price runs close to the national median — a little above it, in fact — while sitting just under the South West regional figure, which suggests Cornwall as a whole is neither a bargain corner nor a premium one against its own region. Cornwall's crime rate per thousand is also on record, but without a matching figure for Talastone itself there's nothing meaningful to set against it locally, so it's best left as a county-level fact rather than a verdict on any one village or street.
That's genuinely as far as the honest version of this piece can go. Talastone may well have a defined character, a school families rate, a station or a park that anchors the weekend — but none of that has come through in the data available, and inventing it would serve you worse than admitting the gap. If you're weighing this place seriously, the sensible next step is a postcode-level search rather than the locality name alone, since that's usually where the school, transport, and crime detail actually surfaces.
