Description
The land is situated off Chapel Hill (an adopted public highway). It is bound by a mix of nearby residential properties, the public highway and adjoining land currently used as a sports facility and clubhouse.
The land is situated in the historic riverside village of Gweek, on the banks of the Helford River and close to the picturesque Lizard Peninsula.
Gweek is a highly regarded location, known for its maritime character, sheltered waters and scenic countryside. Demand is supported by both local residents and year-round visitors drawn to the wider Helford area.
The village offers a convenient range of local amenities, including Gweek Stores, The Black Swan pub and Café Sula, located within the boatyard. Gweek is also home to the well-known Cornish Seal Sanctuary and benefits from proximity to several established visitor attractions, including the National Trust's Glendurgan Garden and Trebah Garden.
The surrounding area offers excellent lifestyle appeal, with waterside walks, creeks and sailing, with yacht clubs at Helford and Port Navas, as well as an extensive choice of local pubs, cafés and attractions within easy reach.
Supermarkets, schools, leisure facilities and healthcare are available in nearby Helston, approximately 6 miles away, whilst Falmouth, a popular seaside town with a thriving harbour and numerous beaches, is also within easy reach at around 12 miles away.
The land benefits from Permission in Principle (PiP) for a scheme of up to 9 open market residential dwellings under reference number PA25/04719. This was issued in January 2026.
The land subject of the PiP extends to circa 1 acre.
