A compact, well-proportioned one-bedroom park home on Glenhaven Park, suited to over-50s seeking low-maintenance living close to Helston amenities. The single-storey layout offers a bay-front lounge, a practical L-shaped kitchen/diner, one bedroom and a wet room — all arranged within a modest 313 sq ft footprint. Outside are small, easy-care gardens with patios, a lawn, a feature fish pond, two useful sheds and off-street parking.

This home’s main attractions are its scale and setting: quiet park living near shops, healthcare and transport links, and easy access to the Lizard Peninsula’s coast. The plot is low-maintenance and sheltered, making it ideal for downsizers or someone wanting a second home without extensive upkeep. Mains services are connected and mobile/broadband coverage is excellent.

Buyers should note important tenure and cost details. The property is leasehold (park home) with a current ground rent of £216.15 per month (review due January 2026) and a site resale fee of 10% plus VAT payable to the site owner on sale. These recurring and sale-related charges will materially affect ongoing affordability and future proceeds. The home dates from 1995 and, while externally reasonable, offers limited internal space and may suit purchasers prepared to accept compact living rather than full residential house dimensions.

Practical considerations: purchasers generally must be fifty or older (subject to landlord discretion). Council Tax Band A means low local tax, but the site service charges and resale levy are significant. This property represents a straightforward, low-upkeep option for retirement or holiday use — best for buyers prioritising location and simplicity over square footage and unrestricted freehold ownership.
