Cash Buyers Only.

GENERAL COMMENTS

A wonderful development opportunity located in a fabulous rural setting with no near neighbours. The property comprises a detached dilapidated cottage that is in a very poor state of repair and has not been lived in for several years. It is likely that purchasers will demolish the existing cottage and replace with a larger more impressive dwelling that will compliment this wonderful site and location (subject to planning permission). In our opinion the plot warrants a bigger property.

The dwelling is a very attractive detached cob built period cottage that is structurally unsound and requires total renovation. The cob exterior rear wall and part of the gable end has fallen down, therefore it is likely that the cottage will be demolished.

The accommodation included two bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor with two reception rooms and porch downstairs. Attached to the cottage is a stone barn that could be amalgamated with the cottage to create additional accommodation and it is a sizeable footprint. There are large gardens that surround the property enclosed within natural hedge boundaries that offer huge scope and it is incredibly quiet and extremely private. A large outbuilding is ideal for garaging/workshop space and a concrete hardstanding provides lots of parking. Services include mains water and electricity and private drainage.

LOCATION

Bissoe Pool Cottage is located in a very quiet, private setting and accessed from the Bissoe Trail close to the hamlet of Todpool. The trail is miles long and leads from the north coast at Portreath to the south coast at Devoran and provides excellent and safe horse riding and cycling opportunities avoiding main roads.

The nearest village with excellent facilities is Chacewater, a sought after village located within five miles of Truro. It benefits from a village shop, public house, bakers, doctors' surgery and primary school. Chacewater has a great sense of community with many village organisations and activities which are held throughout the year.

The villages surrounding Chacewater owe their history to Cornwall's important and prosperous mining heritage and the fine Georgian houses in the area reflect this. Built for the engineers and industrialists who pioneered the industrial revolution and the mining of tin and other valuable commodities of the time.

IMPORTANT

The cottage is in a very poor state of repair and structurally unstable. It is not possible to enter the cottage and no internal viewings are permitted.

COVENANTS

The sellers have imposed the following restrictive covenants.

1. Not to use the house being part of the property other than as a maximum of one dwelling house on the property.

4. The seller will reserve the mineral rights under the property [surface mineral working excluded].

NOTE

This is a very rough, narrow access track and should not be attempted with precious cars - the agents accept no liability for any damage to vehicles. Those concerned about vehicles can park in Todpool and walk to the cottage.

MINING AND ADDITIONAL SURVEYS

If any further mining investigations or surveys are required this will be solely at the purchasers costs.
