We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
An incredibly rare chance to buy two amazing building plots within 1.6 acres of ground. Full planning approved to build stunning, executive, detached houses, both with garages.
Ideal development or dream self-build.
Situated in the thriving mid-Cornwall village of St Columb Road, these exceptional building plots enjoy a highly convenient and well-connected location within the catchment of Newquay-Cornwall’s vibrant coastal town and popular holiday destination, approximately 7 miles away.
St Columb Road adjoins the equally popular villages of Fraddon and Indian Queens, together forming a well-established and well-served community.
The area benefits from a wide range of amenities including local shops, pubs, restaurants, a doctor’s surgery, veterinary practice, parks, a highly regarded primary school, and the recently developed Kingsley Village retail park, home to a flagship Marks & Spencer superstore.
With easy access to the A30, the location provides excellent connectivity, making it ideal for commuting to major towns across Cornwall.
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire two outstanding building plots set within a substantial combined site of approximately 1.6 acres.
The plots benefit from full planning consent (PA25/02892) for the construction of two impressive, fully detached executive homes.
The approved designs feature spacious contemporary living accommodation, offering four and five bedrooms respectively, multiple bathrooms, and integrated garages-perfectly suited to modern family living.
To the rear of the plots lies a generous adjoining paddock, which forms the majority of the total acreage.
Prospective purchasers have the flexibility to decide how this land is apportioned between the two plots, offering further scope and versatility.
The plots are ideally positioned in a quiet and private off-road setting, while still being within easy reach of the village centre.
Mains services are located nearby, making connections straightforward, and the site itself benefits from excellent access via its own road.
The level nature of the land makes it particularly attractive and ready for development. Opportunities of this calibre are increasingly rare.
Whether you are seeking a potentially lucrative development project or looking to create a bespoke self-build home, these plots offer outstanding potential.
With two plots available, the site may also appeal to joint purchasers-be it friends, family, or business partners-looking to develop together.
Whatever the intended use, this is a scheme with all the ingredients for success.
Early viewing is highly recommended, as opportunities like this are seldom available and unlikely to remain on the market for long.
