Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Building Plot with Planning Permission
  • Plot of 0.37 acres (0.15ha)
  • Proposed 1,900 sq ft dwelling

A building plot extending to approximately  0.37 acres (0.15 ha) with planning permission for the erection of a three bedroom barn-style dwelling of approximately 1,660 feet (154 sqm) with the proposed accommodation comprising an entrance hall, open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, master bedroom with en-suite shower room, two further double bedrooms, shower room and bathroom.
Driveway, garage, garden/cycle store and car port with electric charger.

Location
The plot is set along Halesworth Road, a short distance to the north-east of the centre of the village of Walpole.  Walpole is a pretty village situated on the River Blyth, and just 2.5 miles from Halesworth.  Halesworth is a delightful market town which provides a good selection of independent shops, pubs, restaurants, medical centre, vets and a Co-operative supermarket. It also benefits from a train station which has links to London's Liverpool Street station.

The unspoilt beauty of the Heritage Coastline lies within a few miles and boasts the popular centres of Southwold (11 miles), Walberswick, Thorpeness and Aldeburgh.  Snape Maltings is just 13 miles and boasts a world famous concert hall.  Also within a short distance is the RSPB Minsmere Nature Reserve at Dunwich and the historic town of Framlingham, well known for its castle.  Beccles, gateway to the Norfolk Broads is just 13 miles and benefits from a further excellent range of shops and services.  The county towns of Norwich and Ipswich are 26 miles and 27 miles respectively.  

Directions
Proceeding in a southerly direction on the B1117 from Halesworth the plot will be found on the right hand side on entering the village.

Description
Planning permission was granted by East Suffolk Council on 23rd November 2022 (Ref: DC/22/0728/FUL), which was thereafter varied on 12th June 2023 (Ref: DC/23/1238/VOC) for the demolition of the existing buildings on site and the creation of a new dwelling.  A copy of the most recent planning permission, together with extracts of the consented plans, is included within these particulars.

The planning permission provides for the demolition of the existing buildings on site which comprise a Nissen hut and range of timber frame former workshops and stores and thereafter the construction of a barn-style dwelling which extends to approximately 1,660 sq ft (154 sqm).  The proposed accommodation comprises an entrance hall, open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, shower room, master bedroom with en-suite shower room, two further double bedrooms and a bathroom.  Outside it is proposed that there will be a driveway to the front of the property that leads to a garage and car port, together with a secure garden/cycle store.

The proposed dwelling will sit centrally within its plot and enjoy the sun throughout the day.  A number of mature trees and shrubs will also be retained along the plot’s boundary to maintain a degree of privacy.

The drawings that accompanied the planning permission are of a contemporary design with the elevations being a combination of grey vertical clad timber boarding and ‘off-white’ acrylic render set beneath a metal standing seam roof.  

Community Infrastructure Levy

Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is payable and we understand that this was set at £38,819 on 11th July 2023 (Ref: LN00005338).  However, if the plot is purchased by a self builder/owner occupier, then we understand that exemption from CIL may be available.  Enquiries relating to CIL should be referred to the Local Planning Authority, East Suffolk Council; email - [use Contact Agent Button]; [use Contact Agent Button]. 

Services
We understand that mains electricity is available in the road overhead and that mains water and drainage is also available in the public highway—although there is reference to a private treatment plant within some of the drawings.  However, we have not undertaken any detailed investigation in relation to the availability and capacity of services, and prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves in this regard.
 
Viewing
Strictly by prior appointment with the agents and thereafter with particulars in hand.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
