Description
Rarely available in this highly respected village, a brown field development site with lapsed planning permission for two dwellings situated on a level site near to the popular village centre of Polgooth between St Austell, Mevagissey and Truro.
Location
The pretty village of Polgooth is located in a sheltered valley setting two miles west of St Austell, 1.1 mile off the A390 St Austell to Truro road. The village is popular for its location, central as it is for St Austell's many and varied shopping, schooling, recreational and health amenities, together with a the sandy beach at Pentewan, easily accessed by nearby cycle track and walk, and the picturesque and historic fishing port of Mevagissey. The local village amenities are within a short walk and include a village shop/Post Office, a hairdressers and a public house. Listed amongst the many local attractions in the area are Charlestown harbour and the Eden Project, whilst an even greater array of facilities are just 12 miles away in Truro.
The Property
The site is located on the corner of Trelowth Road and Tregonjeeves Lane. Planning permission was granted on the 14/07/2021 under Application No. PA20/07939 for the demolition of the existing buildings and the building of a three bedroom detached house and a two bedroom detached bungalow. This has now lapsed.
Further proposed plans will be included with the sale which, using the same footprint, would provide additional accommodation in the roof space for the bungalow, but this will require planning consent at a later date. Each property would have its own allocated parking areas and the bungalow would have a particularly nice garden.
