The Red House, Boscawen Road, Perranporth, Cornwall
Description
An exciting development opportunity in the popular coastal town of Perranporth, Cornwall, offering the chance to acquire a development site with the benefit of planning permission.
The site owners are looking to sell a long-leasehold interest in the land to a developer.
Planning permission (PA18/06505) allows demolition of the existing single-storey units (NOW COMPLETED AND CONTAMINATED LAND CLEAR) and construction of a striking four-storey building:
Ground floor: retail (Class E)
Upper floors: 9 serviced holiday apartments (Class C1)
Street-level commercial space sits beneath premium holiday accommodation in a proven, high-demand market. It suits investors, operators and developers alike.
PLANNING STATUS
The vendor advises that works have commenced, and the permission is understood to remain extant. The apartments are restricted to short-term holiday letting. The consent is subject to conditions and a Section 106 Agreement.
Purchasers should make their own enquiries of Cornwall Council and review the full planning documentation.
LOCATION
The site is prominently positioned on Boscawen Road, Perranporth, TR6 0EP, occupying a well-established and highly accessible location close to the heart of this popular North Cornwall coastal town.
Perranporth is one of Cornwall's most recognised seaside destinations, renowned for its spectacular three-mile sandy beach, Atlantic coastline, surfing and strong year-round visitor appeal. The beach is surrounded by dramatic cliffs and rolling dunes and provides an exceptional setting for a wide range of recreational activities, including surfing, swimming, coastal walking and water sports.
Boscawen Road forms part of the established town centre environment, with a mixture of commercial and residential properties and a range of local businesses nearby. The location benefits from its proximity to the principal shopping and leisure areas of Perranporth, providing access to independent retailers, cafés, restaurants, pubs and everyday amenities.
The site's position and size makes this an ideal opportunity for investors and developers seeking growth potential in this well-established coastal town.

Flood Risk
Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
