Property description

This is an attractive opportunity to acquire a family property with stables, outbuildings and land, set within a rural hamlet on the fringe of the village of St Stephen which offers an excellent range of larger village amenities, central Cornwall location being approximately five miles to the west of St Austell and within easy reach of the main A30 giving excellent communications within the county and beyond.

Escot comprises a detached circa 1950s dormer bungalow residence with three double bedrooms, two ground floor, one first floor, the first floor bedroom having an ensuite shower room. Lounge, kitchen/dining room, large conservatory and bathroom. Oil-fired central heating to radiators and a mixture of timber framed and UPVC framed double glazing. Immediate gardens front, side and rear, with driveway hardstanding parking and small detached garage incorporating two storage sheds.

To the rear of the stable block is the general purpose building which is of a timber framed pole barn style construction, with overall measurements approximately 50' x 40'.

A separate lane running alongside Escot (the first part shared with neighbour) gives separate vehicular access to these outbuildings and providing additional parking for numerous vehicles. The paddock, approximately 1/2 acre, extends to the rear (North).

The land will be sold with an uplift development value clause reserving 20% of any increase in value attributable to any future planning permissions on the property covering the next 25 years.
