Phone now for further details and to arrange a site visit

Location - This individual building plot is centrally located in the village of Connor Downs, a friendly and well-connected spot in west Cornwall. The village has a relaxed, community feel, with a petrol station with a local shop, pub, primary school, as well as a WI Hall and the popular Trevaskis Farm shop and restaurant, making it a convenient and well-served place to live day to day. Its position just off the A30 also means it’s easy to get around, whether you’re heading further into Cornwall or commuting nearby.

One of the real highlights of living here is how close you are to the coast. Gwithian Beach is only a short drive or bus ride away and is known for its wide, golden sands, rolling dunes, and popular surf conditions. It’s also a fantastic spot for walks and sunsets, with sweeping views across the bay towards the iconic Godrevy Lighthouse sitting on its rocky headland just offshore.

The nearby town of Hayle adds to the appeal, offering a good range of shops, supermarkets, and places to eat, as well as a train station for easy travel further afield. Hayle’s harbour and long sandy beaches make it a lovely place to spend time, and having it so close by gives you the best of both a quiet village setting and easy access to everything you might need.

Summary - A rare opportunity to purchase a serviced building plot with planning in principle for a detached dwelling, centrally located within the popular village of Connor Downs. Planning ref no. (PA26/ 02265)

Agents Note - Taken from the planning portal:
This is an application for permission in principle. The proposed development will
be liable for a CIL charge, and the chargeable amount will be calculated when the
application for technical details consent is determined.

Directions - From our office turn left and proceed out of Hayle. At the Carwin Rise roundabout take the second exit towards Connor Downs. Continue up the hill and you will enter the village. Go past the WI Hall and petrol station on your left, continue along the main road where the entrance to Park Gwenton will be seen on your right hand side. Continue into the development where the plot will soon be seen straight ahead of you.
