In all, approximately 0.4 of an acre extending down to a landing stage with ownership to mean high water and about 60ft direct waterfrontage. An important opportunity to secure one of the very best waterfronting building plots for sale in any location in Cornwall, let alone on the immensely sought after western side of ‘The Point’ which is home to some of the most valuable properties in the county. 2 Ref: LCAA5766 SUMMARY OF PROPOSED ACCOMMODATION Planning consent has been obtained for the construction of a new dwelling with further approval under application PA14/07847 for a non- material amendment to PA13/01358 for repositioning of the double garage adjacent to the new dwelling and omission of the carport.

Entrance hall, stunning large open-plan living room/dining room and kitchen with utility boot room and pantry off. There is a broad terrace off the ground floor kitchen/breakfast room together with an en-suite master bedroom and en-suite guest bedroom on the ground floor. There is a separate bathroom off the entrance hall.

Accessed by one no-through lane, ‘The Point’ as it is known locally, is home to some of the most desirable and valuable private residences in the county, particularly those with direct waterfrontage. The sale of this particular BUILDING PLOT provides the opportunity to acquire an exceptional site with direct waterfrontage on the ‘sunny’ side of ‘The Point’. It is our belief that this is the first vacant building plot to be sold on Restronguet Point for at least 25 years and its availability therefore represents a truly rare opportunity to create a stunning waterfronting house in an exceptional location. 4 Ref: LCAA5766 Restronguet Point has been highlighted in the regional press as the third most expensive road in which to live in the south west and there is justification to expect Restronguet Point to be ranked even higher in the near future as buyers are just starting to realise how very few locations in the entirety of Cornwall offer the exceptional combination of superb access to the cathedral city of Truro and the Port of Falmouth, tranquillity and absence of traffic, wonderful unspoilt water views, direct waterfrontage and the opportunity to keep a boat. In far more developed and much busier locations such as the Sandbanks Peninsula, one pays a very considerable price for such attributes; maybe Restronguet Point has remained something of a ‘secret’ for too long and is now becoming recognised by buyers from the national and international arena as a location with significant logical ‘upside’ for the future. This is, without question, one of the most conveniently placed, prestigious and beautiful locations in Cornwall and will be of huge appeal to those with keen sailing interests and who covet an ever changing view over a tidal creek from an elevated position. 5 Ref: LCAA5766 COMMUNICATIONS The cathedral city of Truro is the main commercial, administrative, legal and retailing centre for Cornwall and offers excellent state and private schooling facilities at junior and secondary level. There is a mainline rail link to London Paddington (approximately 4½ hours) and Newquay Airport at St Mawgan offers regular flights to London Gatwick (flight time about 1 hour). There are 18-hole golf courses at Truro, Falmouth and on the nearby Killiow Country Estate. The famous National Trust gardens at Trelissick are on the edge of the village of Feock beside the upper reaches of the Fal Estuary and the King Harry passenger and car ferry provides easy and rapid access onto the Roseland Peninsula and St Mawes. By boat the beautiful thatched Pandora Inn is easily accessed on the other side of Restronguet Creek, Mylor yacht harbour and Mylor Creek are only a short distance away and indeed Falmouth is within a 10 minute boat ride where one is able to moor a boat and go shopping. The Fal Estuary and its tributaries together with the Percuil River and Helford River are all easily explored by boat. 6 Ref: LCAA5766 OVERAGE CLAUSE The provisions of an Overage Clause entered into with a previous owner of Creek Bank provides for a payment of £70,000 to be paid when a Certificate of Completion is issued by Cornwall Council for the construction of the new property or earlier by agreement.
