Description

MOBILE HOME WITH OUTBUILDINGS AND 17.7 ACRES OF LAND

Situated in a stunning location close to the south Cornish coast with splendid views over the surrounding countryside.

General Comments & Remarks - Kastlah Deer Farm is reluctantly offered for sale for the first time in almost 45 years due to ill health having been lovingly created by the current owner into what has been a successful farm for Deer and other livestock including poultry. The land measures approximately 17.74 acres of sloping land with a mixture of hedged and fenced boundaries and some mature woodland.

The views from the land are absolutely mesmerising and the position of the property offers seclusion and privacy yet within just a few metres of the centre of the hamlet.

There is an entrance driveway with parking for several cars as well as the mobile home and the range of outbuildings. There is huge potential and the possibility to build a new dwelling within subject to planning consents. Any buyer would need to make their own judgement as to the likely hood of future planning.

Occupancy Restriction - Any potential party will be required to speak to the agent Sean Johnston to discuss the below before viewing the property.

The property was built subject to an agricultural planning restriction which limited the occupation. The council have confirmed that the mobile home shall not be occupied by any persons other than the current owner and in connection with the running of the existing Deer Farm.

Reason: The development is approved solely on the grounds of the applicant's specialist knowledge in relation to the working of a deer farm and to ensure that once the applicants are no longer resident on the site, we reassess the need for an agricultural dwelling on the site."

Should another person wish to occupy the site, planning permission should be applied for via a planning application to Cornwall Council. Our client has been advised that any prospective purchaser could submit a pre-application for further advice or could submit a full application for specific advice. An application could either vary the condition (to put in a standard agricultural tie), or could make a new planning application for a replacement mobile home or dwelling.

Therefore, any new buyer will need to make their own judgment as to the future likelihood of planning permission for any business or dwelling.

Policy Al1 – Regenerative, Low Impact Development - A new policy AL1 has recently been introduced by Cornwall Council. Policy AL1 is a policy creating space for unusually sustainable and regenerative developments with multiple environmental benefits in (mostly rural) locations where most development would otherwise not be allowed. There is considerable pressure for development across Cornwall, including its rural areas, and so such development therefore needs to be carefully differentiated from other sorts of development without such benefits. Although Cornwall Council have not provided any information specifically to this property, this new policy may be useful for a potential buyer.

Location - The hamlet of Polmassick lies in an unspoilt and tranquil valley about half a mile from the village of St. Ewe where there is a Church and popular pub. It is also within two miles of the Lost Gardens of Heligan and just a few miles from the famous Eden project and the picturesque fishing village of Mevagissey. It lies on the edge of the scenic Roseland Peninsula and hence many south Cornish beaches and harbourside villages are all with in a few minutes driving distance. The City of Truro with its Cathedral and fine shopping centre is about 12 miles away.
