Offered to the market with no onward chain, this three-bedroom detached residence represents a rare opportunity for those looking to create their dream home from the ground up. Situated on an impressively large plot in a sought-after St. Austell location, the property is in need of complete refurbishment, providing a genuine "blank canvas" for developers or ambitious owner-occupiers.

The internal layout is traditional and spacious, offering the perfect foundation for a modern reconfiguration or a classic restoration.

Living Space: The ground floor boasts two large reception rooms, both featuring generous proportions and natural light and a kitchen.

Functional Areas: To the rear, you will find a porch leading to the garden, a dedicated side utility room, and a convenient downstairs WC.

First Floor: Upstairs, the property offers three bedrooms and a central family bathroom.

The Exterior & Grounds
The standout feature of this property is undoubtedly its external space. The house is perfectly positioned to take advantage of its substantial surroundings:

Gardens: The extensive gardens are primarily laid to lawn, offering a private sanctuary that is increasingly hard to find in town locations.

Parking & Storage: A large driveway provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, leading to a detached garage.

General Information

This property is offered for sale via the Online Modern Method of Auction, a flexible and buyer-friendly way to purchase. Buyers have 56 working days to exchange and complete from receipt of the draft contract, or 10 working days after payment of the Buyer’s Premium, whichever is earlier. This timescale allows buyers to proceed with traditional residential finance.

If the auction is successful, or the vendor accepts an offer during the auction, the buyer will be required to pay a non-refundable Buyer’s Premium, securing the property and removing it from the market. Buyers must agree to the auction terms and conditions before solicitors are instructed. Full details are available on the goto Auctions website or via Purplebricks.

Please note the property is subject to an undisclosed Reserve Price, typically no more than 10% above the Starting Bid. Prices are subject to change.

To book a viewing, visit Purplebricks.

A Buyer’s Premium of 3.6% of the purchase price plus VAT applies (minimum £6,600 plus VAT), along with a Legal Pack fee of £396 including VAT. These fees are payable in addition to the purchase price and may be considered for Stamp Duty Land Tax calculations. Buyers should seek advice from their legal representative.

General Information – Auctioneer’s Comments

The Modern Method of Auction does not require exchange on the fall of the hammer. Instead, buyers are given time to complete the transaction, allowing for mortgage arrangements. The Buyer’s Premium secures the property during the Reservation Period. All terms, conditions and the Reservation Form are available within the Legal Pack.

Material Information

Property Description Disclaimer

This is a general description of the property only, and is not intended to constitute part of an offer or contract. It has been verified by the seller(s), unless marked as "draft". Purplebricks conducts some valuations online and some of our customers prepare their own property descriptions, so if you decide to proceed with a viewing or an offer, please note this information may have been provided solely by the vendor, and we may not have been able to visit the property to confirm it. If you require clarification on any point then please contact us, especially if you’re traveling some distance to view. All information should be checked by your solicitor prior to exchange of contracts.

Successful buyers will be required to complete anti-money laundering and proof of funds checks. Our partner, Lifetime Legal Limited, will carry out the initial checks on our behalf. The current non-refundable cost is £80 inc. VAT per offer. You’ll need to pay this to Lifetime Legal and complete all checks before we can issue a memorandum of sale. The cost includes obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required, and includes a range of benefits. Purplebricks will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in providing these checks.
