Hannahfore, West Looe, Cornwall

Overview

A fantastic opportunity to acquire an exclusive building plot in this prime coastal location with the benefit of full detailed planning permission (Ref.PA24/05295) for a new replacement luxury detached, four bedroomed house. Situated in the prestigious Hannafore area of Looe, this property enjoys a peaceful, slightly elevated position with stunning coastal views. Being so close to the sea, this plot offers breath-taking panoramic views across Looe Bay and St George’s Island and is just a short walk from Looe’s historic harbour.

The proposed detached house has a gross internal floor area of approximately 168sqm (1,808 sqft), there is also a detached double garage to the rear accessed from Portuan Road.The existing 1930’s detached house is a “tired” property (although the owner is currently living there) that was constructed using Mundic blocks and is therefore not mortgageable. The plot extends to approximately 445 sqm (0.11 acres) & is being sold “Chain Free”.

Mains services are currently connected to the existing property, however, all interested parties should make and rely upon their own enquiries of the relevant services providers regarding connection and capacity of mains services.
