Description

This former pump house presents a distinctive opportunity for investors and developers, situated amidst the stunning landscapes of the Maristow Estate and adjacent to Lopwell Dam along the River Tavy. Currently functioning as a café/restaurant that boasts impressive views of the waterway, this property encompasses approximately 210 square meters and is ripe for further development. Potential options include converting it into a unique residential dwelling or repurposing it for various commercial uses, pending necessary planning approvals. Upon entry, one is welcomed by a spacious open area designated as a function room, characterized by vaulted ceilings and dual-aspect windows that enhance its airy feel. The existing kitchen features essential base units, leading into what was once a coffee shop and ice cream parlour with convenient access for service from the parking area. Additional facilities include two washrooms and a valuable mezzanine storage space. Incorporating historical charm, the original pump room remains intact as a striking feature at the building's rear. Equipped with power, mains water, and wall-mounted heaters in the main function area, this property is well-prepared for immediate use while offering significant potential for refurbishment. We encourage prospective buyers to explore this intriguing property to fully grasp its possibilities.
