PLANS & PLANNING PERMISSION
Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent was granted by East Suffolk Council on the 14th November 2022. The plans to which the consent relates, prepared by Nick Barber Architects of Barham near Ipswich, propose an exciting conversion to include a potentially stunning central barn room open to the vaulted ceiling and with full height windows taking full advantage of the views. Equally impressive will be a large kitchen, again with a glazed east facing elevation and in addition to a study and service rooms there will be two ground floor bedroom suites, each with a dressing room and en suite bathroom, whilst on the first floor there will be a further three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
PLANNING CONDITIONS & REPORTS
The planning permission Ref. No: DC/22/1070/FUL has many relatively standard conditions. For a full copy, together with access to the required reports, visit East Suffolk Council's online planning portal, or request a copy from the agents.
AGENTS NOTE
The property is liable for C.I.L (private occupier exemption may apply).
We understand that nearby meadows may be available for rental.
BAT SURVEY REPORT
One of the available reports is a bat survey, which recommends that a full Bat Mitigation License will be required and this will include the creation of a ''bat attic' in one of the to be rebuilt outbuildings.
DIRECTIONS (IP17 3NA)
Travelling in a north easterly direction on the A12, bypass Woodbridge, Wickham Market and Saxmundham, and after passing through Yoxford turn right onto the B1122 signed to Middleton. Proceed across Middleton Moor and continue for a further mile, passing through a sharp left-hand bend and beyond a pair of lanes on the left leading to Middleton village. As the road drops down the hill the trackway entrance to Valley Farm Barn will be found on the left-hand side (if you reach a left hand turning signed to Westleton you have gone too far).
