Favourable pre-planning for six units, architects' plans and demolition quotes available.
- Freehold, very large plot with garage and substantial garden
A substantial freehold plot in central St Austell with clear redevelopment potential. Favourable pre-planning advice has been obtained for a six-unit scheme; architects' proposals and demolition quotes for the existing four two‑bed flats are available, reducing early-stage risk. The site sits about a mile from the coast and close to town-centre amenities, making it suitable for rental or resale in a market town with coastal demand.
The existing buildings are post‑war Cornish unit construction with electric storage heating, double glazing of unknown age and likely no wall insulation. These factors and the system-built walls indicate notable refurbishment or demolition costs if retained. There is a large garden and garage, and the plot footprint (very large) supports the proposed scheme or alternative layouts.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, no flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. Material considerations: the area records high crime and is classified as very deprived with a local profile of constrained renters — factors to weigh for financing, insurance and rental assumptions. Buyers should commission surveys and confirm planning details themselves before committing.
This opportunity suits developers or investors targeting an urban redevelopment close to St Austell town centre and coastal attractions. The price reflects the site's size and planning progress but also the site’s social and construction challenges.
