AUCTION GUIDE PRICE £250,000 - £300,000. For Sale by Public Auction on Wednesday 12th June 2024 at Lifton Strawberry Fields, Lifton, Devon, PL16 0DH.

A truly unique opportunity to purchase a terrace of four properies, comprising of 3 railway cottages & a former Station House, positioned on the periphery of Bodmin Parkway previously known at Bodmin Road Station until 1983.

These cottages are to be sold for only the second time in their history having been constructed by the Great Western Railway in the late 1800s. The properties are brought to the market in one lot for the first time since 1969.

Set on a generous plot of approximately 0.54 acres, with each of the four cottages having their own areas of garden, this is a once in a lifetime sale offering the purchaser the chance to renovate or redevelop to their own personal specification.

Originally constructed for the Bodmin Road Station staff members, the properties once housed the original Station Master and three of his staff, alongside their families.

Each of the properties retains a wealth of charm and character throughout remaining untouched for over 50 years. The terrace of four properties all benefit from having three generous size bedrooms throughout, also having tremendous scope with the surrounding land offering a wonderful opportunity to be landscaped and further enhance the properties surroundings.
