BUILDING PLOT WITH VIEWS AND PLANNING PERMISSION FOR A TWO BEDROOM DETACHED HOUSE
Situated just off Malpas Road between the city and Boscawen Park. The plot offers far reaching rural and river views. Planning permission has been granted for a house with a lounge, kitchen diner and W.C on the ground floor, with two double bedrooms and family bathroom on the first floor. Also for two off road parking spaces, and access to the plot from Polruan & Tregothnan Road.
GENERAL COMMENTS
A unique opportunity to purchase a building plot situated within an elevated position overlooking the Truro River. Building plots with planning permission for detached houses are a rarity in the current market which must not be missed. The plot is situated within the extensive garden of number 3 Polruan Road, so all services are close by. There is currently a block built structure on the plot which did form No.3's utility, but will be demolished and replaced by the new house. Purchasers could create a two bedroom family home sat in a well proportioned plot within close proximity to the centre of Truro but benefitting greatly from Boscawen Park, just moments from the property.The plot enjoys an extremely sunny aspect which will appeal to many and will no doubt increase the value and saleability of the finished product. The plot is accessed via Tregothnan and Polruan Road, with the rear access (Tregothnan) offering permission to create two off road parking spaces, a great bonus as parking is competitive in the area.
THE PROPERTY
Planning permission has been granted for a two bedroom detached property which comprises entrance hall, kitchen/diner, lounge and W.C on the ground floor, while the first floor offers two double bedrooms and family bathroom. The large plot allows for gardens to its front and rear, and the elevated position provide far reaching rural and river views from its southwest facing aspect. Included within the planning permission is the opportunity for prospective buyers to drop the curb at the rear of the site and create two off road parking spaces which is very valuable indeed.
