Property description & features

  • Income Investment Opportunity
  • Village centre location
A fantastic opportunity to acquire the former Post Office and Sorting Office buildings within the much sought after village of Grampound Rd

The buildings, which are arranged as three self-contained residential components, briefly comprises a five bedroom maisonette, two bedroom flat and a detached one bedroom cottage all now requiring some remedial and improvements works.

The dwellings are currently let on Assured Short-hold Tenancies and will therefore naturally appeal to lettings investors. However due to sheer size and scale of the buildings then developers may well consider alternative configurations and potential for further subdivision, subject to all the necessary consents being obtainable.

Grampound Road is a village in the parish of Ladock. This popular village has a post office and Primary School. There are local countryside walks to enjoy and the heart of the village has a cricket field and play area. The village also offers a church and village hall. The recently regenerated St Austell town centre is situated approximately 6 miles away and offers a wider range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities. There is a mainline railway station and leisure centre together with primary and secondary schools and supermarkets. The Cathedral city of Truro is approximately 7 miles from the property offering a broad spectrum of restaurants and shops. This village is in an ideal location for both north and south coast activities.

Directions: - From St Austell head on to the A390 towards Truro, through the village of Grampound and follow the road up on to the small dual carriage way section. As the dual carriage way goes in to one lane at the top on the left hand bend, turn right signposted Grampound Road. xxxxxx

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
