Agents Note
1- There is a public footpath that runs around the edge of the garden. The original route was through the garden but, with the County Council's agreement, the previous owner was able to redirect the path to the edge. The seller informs us it is rarely used as a more appropriate and better connected footpath is located nearby. 2 - Drainage is via a septic tank.

Planning Consent
Planning consent was granted on appeal on 14th March 2025 following the refusal of the original application. Details of this can be found on the planning portal of East Cambs District Council's website with a reference number of 24/00767/FUL.
