The following planning permission has been approved: Full Planning Application - Change of use of buildings/land to 1no. residential dwelling with carport (reference DC/22/04978).

The pre-application advice supported the delivery of a traditional and sympathetic conversion with black weatherboarding to the walls and converting the existing storage area into a cartlodge. The form and scale of the building would be retained. The proposed demolition of the outbuilding is supported to create a larger amenity space. The demolition has been secured by condition. The proposed conversion would create one 4no. bedroom dwelling and a self-contained but attached 1no. bedroom annexe. The annexe would share the access, parking and amenity space with the dwelling. Conditions are imposed to the annexe to ensure it remains ancillary to the host given the site constraints.

Copies of the planning consent and accompanying plans are available from the planning department of the Mid Suffolk District Council or the vendor’s agent.
