Description

Grade II Listed former National School with the benefit of positive pre-application advice from Cornwall Council for conversion into a residential dwelling.

The current site includes the hall, a WC block and a car park. It is located in a central position within the village yet benefitting from views over neighbouring open countryside to the West.

Designations
- The Hall is a Grade II Listed Building
- The whole is set within Constantine Conservation Area
- The Hall (edged red on the Plan) is designated as an Asset of Community Value allowing the community time to put together necessary funding in order to bid to purchase the hall on the open market. The full moratorium period is six months, during which time the hall will be advertised on the open market but a sale cannot be concluded.

Description
Available in Three Lots
Lot 1 Edged Red on the Plan: The Grade II listed Church Hall, benefitting from a positive pre-application for conversion to a single dwelling. The hall building only currently carries an Asset of Community Value (ACV) Status, the extent of which falls within the area edged red.

To enable to the community to have a fair opportunity to acquire the property subject to the ACV, Lot 1 contains only that element subject to the ACV. The land to the south shaded pink but not edged red does not form part of Lot 1 (see The Whole below)

Lot 2 Edged Blue on the Plan: The WC and stone-walled car park (0.12 acres) . The WC Block (constructed of block and decorative granite stone facing to part with slate over) is currently let to Constantine Parish Council for £150 per annum on a periodic tenancy. The car park (bounded by a stone wall with granite entrance posts and laid to gravel) is subject to a Landlord and Tenant 1954 Act lease to Constantine Parish Council with the fixed term expiring on 28 September 2021 and currently holding over. The passing rent is £350 per annum.

This lot is available either separately (to allow the community to acquire the freehold) or as part of the whole.

The Whole (Shaded Pink on the Plan): 0.212 ha (0.52 acres)
In order to accommodate a sympathetic conversion of the Church Hall all of the land shaded pink on the Plan is available to acquire freehold. Should Lot 2 be required as part of a residential development, the purchaser may be required to relocate the main stone-walled village car park and WC to the Eastern end of the site currently used partly as an extension to the village car park under the control of Constantine Parish Council (no formal written agreement is in place) and part let under an Agricultural Holdings Act tenancy. Any relocation will require negotiation with the respective parties. The Pre-app response from Cornwall Council supported this principle.
