Situation - Set amongst the verdant surroundings of the Tamar Valley National Landscape (formerly AONB), this property is located in the idyllic setting of Coxpark, close to the village of Chilsworthy, enjoying an attractive outlook over the Tamar Valley itself. There are plenty of walks and trails available nearby, offering numerous opportunities to explore the region's rich heritage.

The nearby villages of Gunnislake, St Ann's Chapel and Drakewalls collectively offer a full range of day-to-day amenities, including a Post Office, two general stores, an Asda fuel station and mini-supermarket, a primary school, a health centre, garages, several public houses and a railway station providing a regular service into Plymouth city (a 45-minute journey).

Tavistock, 6.5 miles to the east, is a thriving market town on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, forming part of a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site, and offering a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities. Plymouth, with its coastal access, is 17 miles to the south. The city of Exeter lies 45 miles to the northeast, providing air, rail and motorway connections to the rest of the UK.

Description - This is a very rare and interesting opportunity to acquire a peacefully located and hugely appealing parcel of amenity land, ideal for use as a hobby smallholding. The land has good road access and space for parking, and extends to some 2.31 acres in all, encompassing a fenced paddock of approximately 1.41 acres, areas of garden and ornamental planting, light woodland, a fruit and vegetable patch, and an orchard containing a variety of fruit trees. Additionally, there are several useful outbuildings, now in need of repair or replacement, subject to any necessary consents, including corrugated stores, a stable, two dilapidated caravans and, most notably, a timber summerhouse. The summerhouse has been arranged as a sitting room, encompassing a small kitchenette area with an LPG hob, plus a "bedroom", WC and an outdoor shower (also heated using the LPG). The site would lend itself to general amenity, recreational or private camping use (under the 60-day permitted development rules), or as accommodation land for horses, sheep or various other livestock.

Our clients have used a generator on-site for electricity to the summerhouse. LPG-fired hob and outdoor shower.
