Description

A residential development plot in an established part of Praa Sands, with conditional planning permission for a detached dwelling under Cornwall Council reference PA21/03192. An earlier consent, PA19/03068, also relates to the site. The approved scheme and site plan are available through the council's planning portal, and buyers should review the conditions and confirm the current status before proceeding. The plot is on Pengersick Lane, with access to the village, beach and local amenities, as well as the main route between Penzance and Helston. The listing states that a Community Infrastructure Levy payment of £13,676.04 is due to Cornwall Council when development commences under the permission. Viewings are by prior appointment through Stags West Cornwall. Praa Sands is known for its beach and coastal walks. Penzance, with a mainline rail connection to London Paddington, is around ten miles away, while Helston is approximately six miles away.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

36out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a coastal plot opportunity rather than a renovation of an existing house: the listing states conditional permission for a detached dwelling, and includes plans and elevations to help shape the project. Its established Praa Sands setting is a clear attraction, while the overgrown site and visible debris make clearance and preparation part of the job. The consent’s current status and conditions, along with ground conditions, services and build feasibility, need checking before relying on the scheme.

The overall score is low, with the project’s condition and economics difficult to assess from the available information. Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sq ft cannot yet be judged; the £125,000 headline alone does not establish whether it is cheap or dear. No renovation range is available, so the build budget and programme also need establishing, including the stated £13,676.04 CIL charge.

Key opportunities

  • Use the stated conditional consent and included plans and elevations as a starting point for delivering a detached dwelling, subject to checking the permission and conditions.
  • Shape a new home in an established residential setting close to Praa Sands beach and village amenities.
  • Clear the dense vegetation and site debris to prepare the plot for the proposed development.

Key risks

  • This is a ground-up build rather than a cosmetic project: site clearance, construction budget and programme need establishing, with ground conditions and services not evidenced in the photos.
  • Confirm the current status and conditions of planning permission PA21/03192 and account for the stated £13,676.04 CIL charge.
