Detailed Planning Consent granted for a new detached dwelling to replace a timber barn.
Tucked away in a very private position and enjoying fabulous views over it's own grounds.
Proposed single storey dwelling extending to 1065 square feet with open plan living space, two bedrooms, bathroom and utility.
Detached two bedroom mobile home included in sale.
Further outbuildings and caravan.
Fabulous grounds extending to 6.5 acres with two lakes, woodland and pasture.
Services on site including solar array and battery storage for electricity. Private borehole water and two sewage treatment plants.
Extremely rare opportunity to live completely off grid in total privacy.
General Commments - An incredibly rare opportunity to purchase a building plot with over six acres in a rural location in mid Cornwall between Ladock, Summercourt and Fraddon. The whole plot is extremely private and enjoys a sunny aspect, people just do not know that this property exists, even locals who often pass by the entrance. It is very special and will appeal to those looking for peace and seclusion wanting a very low carbon footprint. The location is extremely convenient as the A30 is within a couple of miles for quick commuting throughout the county and Truro, Newquay and both coasts are within easy access. The current owners have spent many years clearing the land which was very overgrown and adding two lakes creating a natural haven for wildlife, a flock of Canada Geese have taken up residency and there is an abundance of birdlife.
The vendors successfully applied to Cornwall Council for a Class Q permitted development to convert the current timber barn into a dwelling. They now have planning permission to replace this with a brand new dwelling. They live in a very modern static caravan that will be included in the sale and there are several useful outbuildings that will also form part of the sale. The proposed accommodation extends to 1065 square feet with two bedrooms, open plan living area, kitchen, utility and bathroom. There is a private bore hole for water and two sewage treatment plants are installed. An extensive solar array provides electricity with battery storage. In addition to this is a 6.0kva ultra silent diesel generator with automatic start that provides electricity back up in emergencies.
The land and grounds are very special and include two lakes, woodland, pasture and a river runs along part of the boundary. The property enjoys total privacy and presents a unique opportunity.
Location - The nearest villages are Summercourt and Fraddon. Both have a public house and shop. Fraddon has a business park including Marks and Spencers, Boots, Next, Mountain Warehouse and McDonalds. The A30 is close by for quick commuting.
