Description

Positioned in Trenear, just a short drive from Helston, this parcel of land may suit a variety of uses.

Currently on site is a hardstanding area, a lawned section and steps to a stream at the rear. The grounds would now benefit from some cutting back.

The land has been used for storage and outdoor space. We understand it benefits from its own postal address — "Nanpara Cottage". A historic septic tank is also located within the boundary.

Notably, the plot has a planning history including a previously approved application (Ref: W2/80/01387/SO1) for a garage and store to support an ice cream van business. More recently, pre-application advice was sought (Ref: PA20/03042/PREAPP) for a residential dwelling (and again in last year or two) , and full planning was refused under Ref: PA21/07009 for a three-bedroom house.

How to find it:
Travelling through Trenear on the B3297 from the Redruth direction, the land is located on the left-hand side just before the bridge over the stream. Helston lies just a few miles in the opposite direction.
