Description

METHOD OF SALE
The property is to be sold by Public Auction (unless sold prior) on Tuesday 9th June at 2.30pm at The Guild Hall, Launceston, Cornwall, PL15 7AR. The property will be sold subject to an undisclosed reserve and the vendor reserves the right for the Auctioneer to bid in the usual way on their behalf up to the reserve.

The winning bidder will need to deposit 10% of the purchase price (or a minimum fee of £5,000 whichever is the greater) on the date of the Auction. The deposit has to be paid to DJR Estate Agents & Auctioneers as the acting Auctioneer and can only be paid in the form of a cheque or bank transfer. Completion will take place 28 days later (or earlier by mutual agreement). Failure to complete will constitute a breach of contract.

All buyers must register with the Auctioneers prior to or on the day of the Auction. Under Money Laundering Regulations 2017, it is a requirement for Estate Agents to perform due diligence checks on any person that intends to bid at an Auction, therefore the bidder will be required to provide 2 forms of identification at the Auction, a photo ID (passport or driving licence) and proof of address (recent utility bill or bank statement dated within the last 3 months, not a mobile phone bill). If the property is being purchased through a business we will need to see proof of the company’s registration through Companies House and ID for all Directors.

SITUATION
Set in the rural hamlet of Thornmoor, 4 miles from the popular village of Lifton with amenities including an award-winning farm shop, doctors, primary school and thriving village community hall. More comprehensive shopping facilities can be found at Launceston some 5 miles distant.

The A30 is 3 miles away at Broadwoodwidger, linking the Cathedral cities of Truro and Exeter. At Exeter there is access to the M5, a mainline railway station serving London Paddington and an international 
airport.

DESCRIPTION 
A most exciting opportunity to purchase a former market garden smallholding, which has a range of redundant polytunnels and a useful range of timber storage sheds. There is a 2 bedroom static caravan, which was occupied for over 25 years, though has been unoccupied for the last 3 years. The dimensions of all the buildings will be found on the floorplan.

OUTSIDE
Set back from the quiet parish road with a five bar gate leading into the parking area for numerous vehicles and access to the useful range of storage barns. 

A further pathway leads to the range of redundant polytunnels (the majority of which need recovering), further outbuildings and the spacious 2 bedroom static caravan which has had additional structures built around it.

From the parking area there is access to the pasture which is divided into three enclosures with hedge and fence boundaries identified on the land plan.
