Location Barn 1, Low Farm is situated within the parish of Swilland along a small country lane. The village itself offers the best of both worlds, being in a pleasant rural setting which is only 5.5 miles from Woodbridge and 6 miles from Ipswich, which offers national shops and businesses as well as trains to London s Liverpool Street Station scheduled every hour. The village offers countryside walks, the award winning Moon & Mushroom public house, an attractive village church, and the popular Newton Hall equestrian centre. Description Permitted Development was granted by Suffolk Coastal District Council on the 5th January 2018 for the conversion and change of use of an agricultural building to a single dwelling under reference DC/17/4986/PN3. Extracts of the approved plans are included within these particulars, but further details of the application can be found on the Suffolk Coastal District Council planning website. The planning website also includes a report on contamination and the appropriate remedial work that may be required. Interested parties should read the report prior to making an offer as it will be the buyer s responsibility to carry out any works. Robin Crowther of J. P. Chick would be willing to discuss further 01473 280699. A site plan of what is to be sold is included within these particulars, with the land outlined in red. The area extends to 1.25 acres. Interested parties should note that the application site is just the barn with the immediate yard surrounding. The adjoining land is deemed agricultural and the buyer will, if they so wish, be responsible for obtaining planning permission to extend the residential curtilage in due course. Martin Price of East Coast Planning Services will be able to provide advice in this respect 07554513495. From studying the plans, interested parties will note that the north-western bay of the barn is to be demolished. This, along with the extension of the existing boundary fence between Low Farm House, and Barn, must be completed within 6 months of purchase. Services Electricity The barn currently has an independent three-phase electricity supply. Water There is currently a mains supply to the barn that also serves the adjacent house and bungalow. The house and bungalow have separate meters within their own curtilages. The mains supply comes through the field at the rear into the grounds of Barn 1 and then spurs off to the house and bungalow. Barn 1 will be responsible for a third of the cost of maintenance/renewal of the supply pipe. The new owner of Barn 1 will be responsible for obtaining an account/meter with Anglian Water. Drainage There is no mains drainage and the buyer will be responsible for installing their own modern sewage treatment plant. Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Suffolk Coastal District Council has confirmed that there will be no CIL payment required.
