The Plot
A parcel of land, on which permission in principle to create an individual dwelling was granted on the 16th April 2026 under Application No. PA26/01382.

The site has been levelled, meaning construction can commence as soon as full planning consent has been approved and relevant conditions discharged.

A private driveway leads on the site, which enjoys a sheltered yet sunny aspect within a ‘stone's throw' of the historic 18th Century Bodmin Jail, now transformed after huge investment, into a stunning luxury hotel.

Location
The plot is hidden away from the road in a wonderful quiet residential setting in the northern fringe off a track called Watery Lane. Whilst enjoying a high degree of privacy, the huge variety of shopping, schooling, health and leisure amenities of Bodmin, are within walking distance. So to, is the Camel Trail, a magical walk and cycle ride culminating in the north Cornish coast harbour town of Padstow. The A30 is easily accessible approximately 1 mile away, Bodmin Parkway railway station on the Paddington to Penzance mainline is approximately 4 miles away on the A38 to Plymouth.
