Description

This property presents a promising prospect for both developers and individuals interested in custom builds, featuring a spacious plot that has received full planning permission for a substantial four-bedroom detached residence. Located near Praa Sands, the site offers easy access to an expansive sandy beach, as well as the scenic countryside. The proximity to towns such as Penzance and Helston, along with nearby Porthleven, enhances its appeal, making it an attractive investment opportunity in a sought-after area. Praa Sands is conveniently situated between Helston and Penzance and is known for its beautiful stretch of beach, which draws both residents and visitors. Local amenities include a pub with dining options and a beachside café/bar. Families will appreciate the well-regarded primary school located just a short distance away in Germoe. For more comprehensive services, the market towns of Helston and Penzance offer national retailers, diverse restaurants, leisure facilities—including indoor swimming pools—and educational institutions ranging from secondary schools to colleges. Additionally, Penzance's mainline rail station provides convenient connections to London Paddington. The provided planning consent allows for a generous living space on the ground floor that includes an open-plan kitchen/dining area alongside separate lounge and study spaces, complemented by utility and cloakroom facilities. The first floor is designed to accommodate four double bedrooms—ideal for families—alongside a family bathroom and master en-suite. While the marketing plans may differ slightly from official documents available through the online planning register (reference PA22/06941), they accurately represent the land being sold. Buyers should note that if they wish to modify aspects such as garage placement, they will need to consult with Cornwall County Council regarding any necessary adjustments or variations. This plot currently does not have services connected; buyers will need to arrange for utilities independently. As part of the purchasing process, prospective buyers should be prepared to provide proof of financial capability prior to completing any sale agreement. Overall, this property offers a rare opportunity in a desirable location with significant potential for renovation or new construction tailored to individual preferences.
