Tenure: Freehold
THE PLOT The site has the benefit of outline planning permission for the construction of a detached dwelling, and is formed by the severance of the side garden of the cottage known as Willowmere. The plot has a frontage of approximately 30m, and a maximum depth of about 25m, and offers an excellent opportunity for the creation of a single detached home. Although there is a sketch layout, no specific details of the proposed property have been provided as part of the planning application.
THE SITE The plot is located within the side garden of Willowmere, which is approximately halfway along Combs Lane, and within about half mile of a good range of facilities at Combs Ford on the south side of Stowmarket. Those facilities include Doctors' Surgery, shops, garage, public houses and takeaways.
PLANNING PERMISSION Planning permission was granted by Mid Suffolk District Council on 11th February 2019 (Ref: DC/18/05541) for the erection of one dwelling and construction of a new vehicular access. Those details can be seen on the website, or by prior arrangement with the Selling Agents at their Stowmarket office.
AGENTS NOTE There will be some restrictions on the property to be built, in order to protect the amenity of Willowmere.
SERVICES It is believed that mains water and electricity are available in the road. Foul drainage to Willowmere is currently by means of a septic tank system located within this new plot, and the buyer of the plot will be required to construct a new mini treatment unit to serve both properties, in a location to be agreed. It is also understood that gas has been laid within Combs Lane within recent years. Interested parties should make their own enquiries to confirm the availability of services from the appropriate supplier.
VIEWINGS Viewings should be made by prior arrangement with the Selling Agents.
COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE LEVY Interested parties should make their own enquiries with the Local Planning Authority, but it is expected that the property will be subject to the usual Community Infrastructure Levy at the prevailing rate. This is the responsibility of the purchaser.
DIRECTIONS From Combs Ford on the south side of Stowmarket proceed towards Great Finborough along Combs Lane, past the Doctors Surgery, and out of the main built up area. After about ½ mile there is a further small group of properties, Willowmere can be seen on the right hand side of the road.
