The Croggan, West Polberro, St Agnes, Cornwall FREEHOLD

Occupying one of the most dramatic locations along the north coast of Cornwall enjoying fantastic far reaching views out across and along the rugged coastline, a detached 4 bedroomed bungalow set within an enormous largely level plot of just over an acre. A spectacularly sited home with direct access onto the coastal footpath close to St Agnes and Trevaunance Cove with huge potential to improve, extend or even replace with a new dwelling(s) (subject to gaining necessary consents) and one of the very last opportunities to do so in this particularly sought after corner of West Polberro. 2 Ref: LCAA6378

SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION

Entrance porch, hallway, sitting room, conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, utility room, wc. 4 bedrooms, family bathroom.

Outside: detached garage, large gravelled parking area, extensive lawned gardens, further large section of unintended gardens with pathways. In all, just over 1 acre.

DESCRIPTION

The availability of The Croggan represents a rare and particularly exciting opportunity to acquire one of the very best situated properties in St Agnes, situated on the cliff tops above Trevaunance Cove, walking distance from the beach and village and enjoying fantastic far reaching views far up the rugged north Cornish coastline to Penhale and Perran Sands to Trevose Head in the distance but also far out to sea.

3 Ref: LCAA6378 The existing detached four bedroomed bungalow is spacious and well presented and enjoys fabulous views and is very much habitable and ready for immediate occupation. However, such is the quality of the site it offers incredible scope for improvement/extension and most probably total redevelopment with a new dwelling(s) (subject to planning permission being granted). In recent years and in the immediate vicinity of the property there have been a number of new developments where highly individual, large, contemporary landmark properties have been constructed and these redevelopments have set new precedents and further increased the allure and appeal of this particularly select corner of West Polberro. Indeed, the availability of The Croggan represents arguably one of the very last opportunities to acquire one of the premier sites in the locality to redevelop. That said, also in the broader context of the Cornish market such opportunities are very few and far between.

 Stunningly situated detached four bedroomed bungalow.

 Enjoying fantastic far reaching views out along the rugged north Cornish coastline from Trevaunance Cove to Penhale and as far as Trevose Head.

 An exception large plot of just over 1 acre offering huge potential to create one of the county’s foremost coastal homes.

 Walking distance from village amenities at St Agnes and Trevaunance Cove surfing beach below. Conveniently located close to Truro and the A30 expressway.

LOCATION

The Croggan is found in the lightly populated West Polberro area which is an off shoot of St Agnes and sits above Trevaunance Cove. The South West Coast Path leads down from the property to a sandy beach which has excellent surfing in the right conditions. The area is designated as one of Outstanding Natural Beauty, of Great Historic Value, of Special Scientific Interest and is also within a designated Cornwall Wildlife Trust site. The area is well known for walking, horse riding and mountain biking as well as many paths along the coast leading around to Chapel Porth and also inland over St Agnes Beacon – one of Cornwall’s highest and most visible landmarks.

The friendly and community centred village of St Agnes offers a good number of amenities including butchers, grocers, fish shop, bakery, post office, restaurants, doctor and dentist, various inns and a primary school. There are various village parties throughout the year 4 Ref: LCAA6378 including the wonderful Giant Bolster Parade where a man dressed as a giant roams the streets!

The cathedral city of Truro is about 7½ miles away and offers Cornwall’s foremost range of shopping, business, commercial and both state and private school facilities. St Agnes is the nearest and most picturesque of Cornwall’s north coast villages to Truro and as such is held in very high regard. The A30 expressway is about 3 miles away and links Cornwall to the motorway network at Exeter, as well as providing quick access throughout the county. The nearest railway stations are at Redruth and Truro on the main Penzance to Paddington line with journey times to London being around 4½ hours. Newquay Airport at St Mawgan is about 25 minutes’ drive away and has regular internal and international flights including to London.
