Description

This two-acre building plot offers a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a promising rural setting. Nestled against the backdrop of picturesque rolling countryside, the site boasts generally level terrain and beneficial road frontage. With outline planning permission already granted, prospective buyers can begin envisioning their future dwelling in this sought-after hamlet. Spanning approximately 1.941 acres, the land also features a natural spring water source at the bottom of the field, enhancing its potential for residential development and outdoor amenities. The outline planning permission allows for the construction of a single dwelling with all matters reserved, providing flexibility in design to align with personal preferences or market demands. Details regarding the planning application can be accessed via Cornwall Council's Planning Website. The property is conveniently located near existing utilities; reports suggest that water, electricity, and super-fast broadband connections are readily available adjacent to the plot. While this presents an advantageous situation for future developments, buyers should verify these services independently to ensure they meet project requirements. For those interested in investment potential, this site represents an ideal canvas to develop a dream home or capitalize on more expansive rural living trends. The serene location combined with its proximity to local amenities makes it attractive for both personal use and as a rental opportunity. As a reminder, prospective buyers will need to familiarize themselves with any easements, wayleaves, or rights of way associated with the property as these may affect development plans. Understanding boundary definitions is also crucial; therefore, due diligence in reviewing any related documentation is advisable before proceeding. This plot holds significant promise in a desirable area—an essential consideration for investors seeking to make their mark in today’s evolving real estate landscape.
