Land for sale

Indian Queens, St Columb TR9

A rare opportunity to acquire an extensive and strategically located parcel of land extending to approximately 23.4 acres, situated just outside Fraddon and Indian Queens, on the prominent stretch of the A30 known locally as 'Hamburger Hill'.

The Land
The land lies on the edge of Cornwall's Clay Country and is surrounded by a growing cluster of industrial and commercial premises, highlighting its strong potential for a range of alternative uses (subject to planning consent). The land itself is pasture and benefits from easy vehicular access and is currently successfully grazed by cattle. It is laid to grass, predominantly gently sloping, and benefits from well-maintained perimeter fencing throughout. The ground is workable, and its current use has proved functional and sustainable for low-density livestock for many seasons.

The property comprises a selection of traditional corrugated agricultural buildings, offering potential for renovation, continued agricultural use, or repurposing to suit the buyer's requirements. Spanning over 9,000 sq ft with earth flooring, these structures have stood for more than 50 years. The 'Feed House' is equipped with a water tap, and there is also an outdoor trough. The current vendors have been using the land since the 1970s and have held ownership since 1981.

Notably, a section within the plot (shaded pink on the plan) was sold to South West Water (formerly the Water Board) in the 1950s, and is known as Highgate Reservoir. This piece remains in operational use by sww. While forming a separate title, it shares the main gated access with the land, and there exists a longstanding informal arrangement whereby sww replace the gate if damaged, ensuring continued maintenance without formal legal obligation.
