Description

***An exceptional opportunity to acquire an extensive and versatile building plot in one of Cornwall’s most sought-after coastal settings—Water Lane, St Agnes***

Set along the highly desirable and iconic Water Lane, this generous South-facing “blank canvas” plot offers purchasers a rare chance to create a truly bespoke home in a location renowned for its natural beauty and lifestyle appeal. With outline planning permission granted (Ref: PA23/09966) for the construction of an impressive 3/4 bedroom detached residence extending to approximately 205 sqm, the groundwork has been laid while still allowing scope for a buyer to bring their own vision to life (subject to securing full planning consent and all necessary approvals).

Perfectly positioned on the fringe of St Agnes, the plot enjoys a wonderful balance of tranquillity and accessibility. Just minutes from the stunning coastline, including the ever-popular St Agnes Beach, the area is celebrated for its dramatic cliffs, surf, and scenic coastal walks. Nearby, the historic Wheal Gooninnis stands as a striking reminder of Cornwall’s rich mining heritage, enhancing the character and outlook of the surrounding landscape.

The plot itself benefits from direct access via Water Lane—an address synonymous with exclusivity—and enjoys beautiful views across rolling Cornish countryside, St Agnes Beacon and glimpses of historic engine houses adding a distinctive and picturesque backdrop.

Red boundary outline is for indicative purposes only.  

By separate negotiations, boundary to the East could be extended, please call agent for further details. 

***VIEWINGS STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT ONLY!***

Further details on planning are available under reference PA23/09966. All development is subject to obtaining the necessary consents and approvals.

Area:

Water Lane is perfectly positioned to enjoy the very best of life in St Agnes—a thriving and characterful North Coast village known for its strong sense of community and vibrant atmosphere. Just a short stroll leads you into the heart of the village, where independent shops, artisan cafés, and welcoming pubs create a lively, year-round buzz. From locally roasted coffee spots to popular eateries serving fresh Cornish produce, St Agnes has built a reputation as a foodie destination, blending relaxed coastal living with a distinctly creative edge.

For those drawn to the outdoors, the location is exceptional. Water Lane sits on the approach to the beach, placing you moments from the golden sands and rolling surf of St Agnes Beach, as well as the breathtaking South West Coast Path. This stretch of coastline is famed for its dramatic cliff-top walks, with panoramic sea views and historic landmarks such as Wheal Gooninnis and Wheal Kitty adding to the scenery. Whether it’s early morning swims, sunset walks, or simply enjoying the rugged beauty of Cornwall’s north coast, the lifestyle here is both active and inspiring.

Beyond its coastal appeal, St Agnes is a practical and well-connected place to call home. The village offers essential amenities including a primary school, doctors’ surgery, and local services, while nearby towns such as Truro and Perranporth provide further shopping, schooling, and leisure options. Transport links are also excellent for a coastal village, with regular bus services, mainline rail connections from Truro, and air travel available via Newquay Airport. Combining accessibility with charm, natural beauty, and a thriving local scene, it’s easy to see why Water Lane is such a desirable place to live.
