Derelict historic barn near Looe with large grounds and development potential.
Grade II listed two-storey barn with two ancillary outbuildings
A rare development opportunity on the fringes of Looe: a Grade II listed two-storey barn with ancillary outbuildings set within about 0.62 acres of grounds. The site previously gained consent to convert the main barn into a three-bedroom dwelling (Cornwall Council reference PA16/06508 dated 26 October 2016), but that permission has now expired. The buildings are derelict and will require comprehensive restoration and listed-building consent to alter their fabric.
The main barn and outbuildings offer significant scope for a sympathetic conversion or restoration project for an experienced buyer. The property benefits from a private driveway, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and is approximately one mile from Looe’s town centre, schools and local services. An adjoining 5.33 acres may be available to let separately, offering further scope for pasture, gardens or private amenity.
Important practical points: the barn’s Grade II status will restrict permitted works and likely increase costs for specialist materials and approvals. Services are not guaranteed on site and purchasers must investigate provision and connection costs. Standard diocesan covenants will be imposed, and the estate will retain rights over adjacent retained land. The buildings are ruinous and overgrown and will need full structural and roof restoration.
This holding will suit a buyer with experience of listed-building projects or a developer prepared to navigate heritage consents. For those able to manage the listed constraints and service costs, the site presents a chance to create a distinctive rural home very close to the Cornish coast.
