- OVERALL FLOOR AREAS OF 237SQM
- FANTASTIC LOCATION
- FAR REACHING COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS
Description
Offering a rare development opportunity for the development of 7 Live/Work units which would comprise a workshop area to ground floor of 110sqm together with an open plan living space over of 127sqm together with associated off road parking.
Consent for the 4 units was granted on the 26th February 2024, application number PA23/07429 with consent for a further 3 units granted on the 12th November 2024, application number PA24/02679.
The proposed scheme has been prepared in two phases to reflect the way planning consent was granted and copies of all of the associated documents in relation to each application is available on the Cornwall Council Planning Portal using the planning reference numbers to locate the associated documents.
Currently available as a whole, the site could be available to purchase in two separate parcels i.e. 4 and three units subject to negotiation.
Whilst the current consent provides for 7 Live/Work units any eventual purchaser may of course decide to resubmit an alternative application for a reduced density of development of larger scale industrial units.
Located just over 1.5 miles from the village of St. Merryn the site is easily accessible from the main highway being situated alongside an existing small industrial park of other mixed users.
Extracts of the plans have been attached for illustration but as already stated all documents are available from the Cornwall Council Planning Portal using application numbers PA23/07429 and PA24/02679 for the two respective consents.
SERVICES :-
Electricity - We understand that mains electricity is available immediately in front of the site, however, specific enquiries in relation to electricity connections should be made with The National Grid.
Drainage - In terms of drains, the planning consent specifies that each unit will have their own private drainage subject to design by a specialist drainage company.
Water - We understand that mains water is available at the entrance to the site and specific enquiries should be directed to South West Water.
CIL Liability - Application PA23/07429 and PA24/02679 require CIL contributions which are detailed on the Cornwall Council Planning Portal.
Section 106 Contribution - As there is no affordable housing element within the proposed development there will be an off-site Section 106 contribution, details of which are available on the Cornwall Council Planning Portal.
