This freehold plot in the centre of St Merryn offers a compact, straightforward development opportunity in a sought-after North Cornwall village. Planning in principle (PA25/02883) covers 1–3 residential dwellings, giving flexibility for a single house or a small multi-unit infill scheme. The site sits close to local amenities, public transport and primary schools, making it attractive to local purchasers or holiday rental investors.
The parcel extends to approximately 396.6 sqm (0.1 acres) of open hardstanding with clear boundaries and road frontage to Harlyn Road. Main water, electricity and drainage are present in the village, but purchasers must verify service connections and capacities themselves. The plot is offered off a guide price of £150,000 freehold, with bids by informal tender and a purchaser contribution to the owner’s legal fees.
Important caveats are clear: planning is only at the principle stage, not full consent, so a buyer must progress detailed applications and surveys. Broadband speeds in the village are reported slow, and the site has highway visibility which may affect design and privacy. These factors temper build costs and timetable but do not negate the site's appeal in a low-crime, well-located Cornish village popular with holiday visitors and local families.
