Method Of Sale - The property will be offered for sale by Online Traditional Auction. The online auction is scheduled to end on 21st June 2023 at 6:00pm for lot 1 and 6:30pm for lot 2.

Situation - The woodland is situated just 2 miles outside the city of Truro, which offers a comprehensive range of retail and leisure amenities together with a train station that offers a main line rail connection to London Paddington.

The Killiow Estate is nearby and the woodland was historically part of this, with the stone ride being the old estate road. There is a comprehensive local network of roads, lanes and paths, ideal for exploring the many creeks and inlets nearby such as Mylor and Restronguet Creek. Loe Beach is just 3.5 miles away and offers various activities which cater for the watersport enthusiast, whilst Trelissick Gardens (a National Trust Property) offers walks across open parkland and woodland, with views down the estuary to the town of Falmouth.

Falmouth itself is a colourful, bustling town, with a range of shops, restaurants, bars and galleries and is home to a beautiful natural harbour, the popular Gyllyngvase beach, as well as Pendennis Castle.

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

    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
