SITUATION
The land lies in a peaceful yet convenient position on the edge of St Columb within easy reach of a number of popular beaches. It is close to Newquay and Newquay Airport, and has good access on to the A39 and the A30. It provides an excellent base with easy access to many Cornish attractions.
DESCRIPTION
The land currently comprises a single 1.61 acres field on the banks of the River Menalhyl, with a small stone barn in the NW corner.
The land is very gently south facing and can be accessed by vehicles over a shared access from the north, and over the footpath, from Gluvian Bridge to the east.
The meadow is currently a haven for a range of wildlife. It offers potential to create a more managed area perhaps for 56 Day Camping or other recreational uses (that may or may not require planning consent), whilst continuing to maintain the rest of the land for wild flowers, insects, birds and other wildlife. The River provides an ideal area to relax beside or perhaps let children try to catch a fish.
The barn (measured approximately from the OS plan) measures 12' x 28'. It is an open fronted single storey barn in need of repair, but may in the future, offer some potential (STP), for a range of uses. The route of the nearby footpath actually runs at least 20m away from the barn at its closest point, enabling the barn to be quite private. There may also be potential (STP) to erect a stable or a field shelter.
SERVICES
There are no mains services currently connected, although the land is naturally watered. An overhead electricity line crosses the NW corner and Legal Rights are granted to bring mains water from the road under the vendor's retained land to the east.
FENCING
The purchaser will be responsible, within 4 months of Completion, for clearing and erecting a stock proof fence between Points A - B shown on the attached plan, together with blocking up the two gateways halfway along the eastern boundary of the meadow. Further details can be found within the Legal Pack.
WAYLEAVES, COVENANTS AND RIGHTS OF WAY
The land is sold subject to and with the benefit of any Wayleave Agreements, restrictive covenants or public or private rights of way. There are no restrictive covenants limiting the use of the property. The owner of the field to the west, shares vehicular access rights over the strip from the north shaded brown on the attached plan, this crosses a small part of this property in the NW corner. There is also a 6m wide right of access reserved, just inside the gate on the eastern boundary., linking the vendors' retained land. A footpath runs from the highway at Gluvian Bridge (170m to the east) along (and just within) the northern boundary.
TENURE & COMPLETION
