Buttermill Cottages, Merrymeet, Liskeard, PL14 3LS

A Group of 12 individual, self-contained bungalows set in a horseshoe arrangement on a sloping site including a former farmhouse building later used as offices, and outbuildings including activities barn.

The site is located adjacent to the A390 which connects Callington with Liskeard in South East Cornwall and also includes extensive grounds, gardens and ample parking for multiple vehicles.

Located on the outskirts of the small village of Merrymeet, just off the A390, approximately three miles from Liskeard to the West and six miles from Callington to the East.

The A390 links with the A38 which connects South East Cornwall with the city and regional centre of Plymouth where in turn, it then links with the motorway network at Exeter, M5 Junction 31. There is a railway station in Liskeard and a main station in Plymouth with direct access to central London via the Penzance to Paddington line.

The site briefly comprises 12 detached bungalows which are fully self-contained, and each include living room, kitchen, bedroom and bath or shower room/WC.

The configuration of the bungalows does vary slightly in that some have an open plan living room/kitchen although the majority have a separate kitchen and there is a mixture of shower rooms/wet rooms and bathrooms with baths.

There is a detached former farmhouse which has latterly been used as offices and briefly comprises:

Ground Floor – Hallway, open plan living room, two further rooms, kitchen, bathroom/WC.
First Floor – Two rooms, bathroom/WC.

There is also a range of outbuildings which includes large barn previously used for activities, further outbuilding used as storage and adjacent outbuilding which has historically housed outside WC’s.

The site is approached by a driveway with adjacent gardens including pond and a range of established trees and other plants. There are two gravel parking areas and a tarmac drive leading to the bungalows, the majority of which also have adjacent gravel parking.

Buttermill Cottages is a somewhat rare and unique property and has the potential to suit a wide variety of purchasers given the flexible accommodation on offer.

Although most recently operated as a care facility and depending on client group and operator requirements, it would suit something similar again, the location close to both the Moor and Cornish coast makes it a potentially appealing proposition from a leisure or tourism perspective in particular as it traded as a holiday cottage complex in the past.

The property is available with immediate vacant possession, and we are seeking offers on a guide price of £950,000 for the freehold interest.

The Buyer will on completion of the sale be required to enter into an election under Section 198 of the Capital Allowances Act apportioning £1.00 of the sale price to each of integral features and plant and machinery at the Property.
