0 bidsThree acres of pasture land divided neatly into five enclosures together with a stone building and a metal shelter. Fantastic position on the edge of the Clay Trails offering miles of off-road riding and walking opportunities on the doorstep. Enjoying an elevated situation overlooking the wooded valley.
The Land
The land comprises five fairly equally sized enclosures, most of which are sloping, totaling 3.00 acres or thereabouts. The enclosures are in grass and most have beautiful stone walled boundaries, with the remainder having live growth hedges.
The land is set alongside but elevated from the B3274 Stenalees to St Austell road and immediately west of a public footpath from which the land is accessed via three gateways. In the immediate vicinity and directly adjoining the adjacent footpath are the Clay Trails, offering miles of off-road walking, riding and cycling opportunities right on the doorstep.
Set at the centre of the land is a stone building and a metal store/shelter, both in need of some repair but nonetheless offering potential for reinstatement or for other uses (subject to planning consent).
Being elevated the land enjoys far reaching views over the wooded surroundings and including the Sky Spur and the water-filled clay pits.
Services
None connected. Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries to the relevant service providers.
Wayleaves, Easements & Rights of Way
The sale will be subject to and with the benefit of all wayleaves, easements and rights of way as may exist. No public rights of way cross the land being offered for sale.
Particulars & Plan
Whilst every care is taken in the preparation of these particulars, their accuracy is not guaranteed and they do not constitute any part of an offer or contract. Any intending purchaser/s must satisfy themselves by inspection or otherwise as to the correctness of these particulars.
Location
The land is ideally positioned for those looking for grazing land for horses, owing to its proximity to the multi-use Clay Trails, but is equally suited to those looking for amenity land. Carthew is a small village on the outskirts of St Austell town which is home to the Wheal Martyn Clay Works museum. St Austell town centre is within just 2 miles and is a large and bustling market town with a mainline railway link to London (Paddington). The town provides a wide range of every day amenities and facilities including primary and secondary schooling, a high street with national retailers and independent stores, numerous eateries, supermarkets and St Austell is of course home to the famous Eden Project.
Viewing
Viewers may access the land for viewing purposes with sale particulars in hand, during daylight hours adhering to the Countryside Code. Please notify the agents Lodge & Thomas of your intended visit. Tel: 01872 272722 Email: property@lodgeandthomas.co.uk
Directions
Proceeding out of St Austell in a northerly direction along the B3274, continue through Trethowel and Ruddlemoor. After passing the Wheal Martyn Clay Works museum on the left hand side, follow the road as it bears right and then the footpath access to the land can be found on the right hand side, almost immediately opposite the bridge on the left. Continue up the footpath and the first entrance gate into the land will be located on the right hand side after a very short distance. We advise interested parties to proceed to the land on foot for viewing purposes.

†Traditional auction
Exchange occurs at the end of the auction. This means that if the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, the successful bidder is legally obliged to pay the purchase price and the seller will be legally obliged to sell the property. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the buyer is automatically charged a holding deposit, which is held in a secure client account, pursuant to the terms of a holding deposit agreement.
* Pricing Information
The Guide Price amount specified is an indication of each seller's minimum expectation. It is not necessarily the amount at which the property will sell. Each property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the property will not be sold) which we expect will be set no more than 10% above the Guide Price amount.
