Jubilee Cottage, Polgooth, St. Austell, Cornwall PL26 7BP

At a £65,000 guide price, this two-bedroom freehold is a notably cheap entry point: £126/sqf against a local average of £291/sqf. The auction hammer can go above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap. The photos show a substantial project, with damaged and stained finishes across several rooms, a ceiling opening, a dated kitchen and shower room, and a heavily overgrown garden with deteriorated timber outbuildings. The listing also reports Japanese knotweed but provides no supporting documentation.

The £45,000–£75,000 renovation range reflects a full-scale opportunity to rework and refresh the interior, improve the garden and decide what to do with the outbuildings. The location near St Austell and Charlestown, freehold tenure and low guide price give the project a promising starting point, but the main roof condition is not established in the photos.
