0.75 Acres Building Plot - Lapsed consent for up to 2 Affordable Homes

A non-estate 0.75 acre parcel of land on the very fringe of St Mawgan village close to Mawgan Porth beach with the benefit of outline planning consent (lapsed 19th December 2022) for up to two affordable homes.

This enviable non-estate location on the northern fringe of the historic village of St Mawgan will appeal for its semi-rural environment, but also for its close proximity to the popular surfing and family beach of Mawgan Porth just one and half miles down the road.  This same road connects with the B3276 road running along the north Cornish coast which means that iconic beaches and villages such as Porthcothan, Treyarnon Bay, Constantine, Haryln, Trevone and Padstow are all within just an 8 mile drive.  The A39/Atlantic highway is about 4 miles distant as is the busy town of St Columb where there are a wide variety of shops and amenities.  St Mawgan village itself features a primary school, nursery school, pub and shop with tea rooms, all centred on the church, which can be dated back to the 13th Century.  The village also hosts the Grade 1 Listed 13th Century Lanherne House, which since 1794 has been a convent.  For those needing to travel further afield, Newquay airport is 1 mile distant and the A30 approx. 7 miles, which puts the major towns of St Austell and Truro approx. 14 and 18 miles distant respectively.  The expansive beach at Watergate Bay, a popular surfing venue is about 3 miles distant and Cornwall’s holiday mecca, Newquay is a further 3 miles on.

This 0.75 acre parcel of land has the benefit of planning consent granted 20/12/2019 for up to two Section 106 restricted affordable homes as part of a larger site under application number PA18/09327.  A subsequent application and appeal to remove the Section 106 obligation was dismissed on the 11/03/2022.  The current permission will lapse on the 19th December 2022. The site is currently garden, laid predominantly to lawn with Cornish hedging along three sides, with a gentle south-westerly slope. There will be a right of way over the existing access.  

Services: We understand a mains water pipe runs along the eastern boundary of the site and a mains gas pipe runs along the northern boundary.  There is an electricity pole to the western corner of the site and private drainage will need to be installed.
