Land For Sale £250,000
A unique opportunity to purchase a private slipway, boat yard and workshop affording direct access onto the Camel estuary. This is the first time the property has been on the market for over 40 years and is unique in that it provides a private slipway, large enough to launch substantial boats into the river. The estuary is tidal and day trips are regular taken from Wadebridge to Padstow, Rock and beyond.
The property consists of a workshop fronting the road, two other sheds for storing boats and associated equipment, a slipway with flood gate, and hardstanding for several boats. There is vehicular access from Bradfords Quay Road, and the property could be adapted for a variety of uses, subject to obtaining planning permission. The adjacent property on the upstream side is currently also for sale, and that has residential planning permission for a number of luxury riverside apartments.<br /><br />The property is located in the popular town of Wadebridge in North Cornwall. The town has an excellent range of facilities including shops, supermarkets, restaurants, pubs, a cinema, gp surgeries and dental practices. There is also the renowned Camel Trail Cycle Path, which links Wadebridge with Padstow and Bodmin, and is popular with walkers and cyclists alike.
The breathtakingly beautiful beaches and coves of North Cornwall are also within easy reach; offering excellent opportunities for watersports. Polzeath, widely known as one of the best beaches for surfing in Cornwall, is just 7 miles away. There is also the South West Coast Path: England's longest waymarked long-distance footpath and a National Trail. It stretches for 630 miles, running from Minehead in Somerset, along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall, to Poole Harbour in Dorset. The renowned fishing port of Padstow is 5.5 miles away via the Camel Trail, or 7.5 miles away by road. Centred around the attractive harbour, the bustling town is an eclectic mix of fisherman's cottages and merchant's houses. There are plenty of independent shops, cafes and restaurants, notably including Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant. Also just over 6 miles away, on the opposite side of the estuary to Padstow, is the village of Rock, which has been one of the most sought after villages in the South West for generations. Rock has a good range of amenities including an active sailing club. Communication links in the area are excellent. The A39 and A30 at Bodmin lead to Devon, Exeter and the M5. There is a direct train from Bodmin Parkway to London Paddington, with some journeys taking under four hours. Newquay is just 12.5 miles from Wadebridge and has regular flights to all major UK airports including London (Heathrow and Gatwick), Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Leeds Bradford.
