Description

Hunters Estate Agents are delighted to present this opportunity to build your forever home in a lovely semi-rural setting, positioned on the edge of a sought-after village — equidistant from Helston and Falmouth. With outline planning permission already in place for the removal of the existing park home and replacement with a stunning detached dormer bungalow, and services already on site, this plot is sure to be of appeal to developers and self-builders alike.

Overview - Are you like us and love watching those property shows where people build their dream home from the ground up? Ever found yourself daydreaming, thinking, “I could do that” — if the right opportunity came along? Well, this could be your moment.

Tucked away on the edge of the peaceful village of Carnkie lies a real gem of a building plot. While there’s currently a two-bedroom park home and a detached garage on site, we believe the true value lies in the exciting opportunity offered by the existing planning permission — and that’s where we’ll start.

The Planning Permission - Two of the biggest hurdles when it comes to building your own home are securing the initial planning permission and getting services in place — and this plot has both covered. Approved outline planning permission is already in place (Ref: PA24/03654, dated 6th September 2024) for a detached dormer bungalow, and the site benefits from existing mains electricity and water supplies, along with private drainage, thanks to the current park home. The plot is a generous size, offering plenty of space for a new home, along with gardens and off-street parking.

The Location - Tucked away in the Cornish countryside, Carnkie is a peaceful village with a lovely sense of community and open fields on the doorstep. Within a twenty minute or so drive are the larger towns of Helston and Falmouth, with the latter offering a good variety of services and amenities, in addition to some of the most picturesque beaches and coastline in Cornwall. Here you can enjoy the best of both worlds — a relaxed village lifestyle, with vibrant towns just a short drive away. What more could you want?

The Existing Site - The site currently includes a freehold two-bedroom park home, which sits on a concrete base. It offers a rare degree of flexibility – without the fees or restrictions often associated with park home communities. The current accommodation includes two double bedrooms, a kitchen, utility area, lounge/diner and bathroom. While the park home is currently lived in, its condition means buyers will likely be planning for replacement – whether with another park home or new build.

Outside, the plot offers off-street parking, a detached double garage (in need of repair or rebuild), garden space, and a secluded courtyard to the rear.
