Description

This parcel of land in the serene coastal village of Golant presents a unique investment opportunity, complete with planning permission for a log cabin summerhouse. Spanning approximately 178 sq m, this site offers the potential to create a charming retreat or rental property in an area known for its natural beauty and outdoor activities. Golant is nestled along the western bank of the Fowey River, providing a tranquil waterside setting that attracts both residents and visitors. The village is well-equipped for leisure and recreation, featuring kayaking options, a rowing club, and a local pub. Additionally, there is public access to a slipway for launching boats and mooring opportunities available upon request. The location is convenient, with Par just three miles away offering essential amenities such as shops, a post office, medical services, and a train station. Fowey, renowned for its picturesque landscape and vibrant community atmosphere, lies only 2.5 miles from the property. This bustling town boasts outstanding schools at both primary and secondary levels, as well as dining options ranging from quaint pubs to upscale restaurants overlooking the river. Positioned at the end of School Lane, this elevated piece of land affords panoramic views of the Fowey estuary and surrounding countryside. The plot's peaceful environment makes it an ideal spot for those seeking a retreat from urban life while still being close to essential services. The approved planning application allows for construction of a log cabin summerhouse designed primarily for occasional use. At 4.2 meters square in footprint, it offers an open-plan layout complemented by an inviting timber deck that faces towards the estuary—perfect for enjoying sunsets or hosting gatherings. Please note that pedestrian access only is available to the summerhouse. While there are currently no utility services connected to the land, this offers potential buyers flexibility on how to develop future utilities based on their specific needs. Additionally, it's important to be aware that there is a footpath crossing across the plot—further details can be provided upon inquiry. With its blend of natural beauty and investment potential in a desirable locality, this property invites imaginative possibilities for development in one of Cornwall's charming villages.
