Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
- Development plot

Description
Sat up away from the road the current properties enjoy a prominent central position within the village. There are views across the green to the front of the properties along with grazing fields bordering the rear of the plot, creating a delightful position for family homes. This site has detailed planning consent (DC_22_0117_FUL) for the demolition of the existing pair of semi-detached cottages.
This is to be replaced with two detached new houses of vernacular style each accessed via separate drives which are shared with one other property.
Unit one is designed to be approximately 1620 sq ft with three first floor bedrooms. Unit two is the larger of the units and occupies the rear of the site away from the road frontage and this is a three/four bedroom unit of approximately 1680 sq ft. The site is sure to appeal with smaller builders/developers.
The properties themselves have been sympathetically designed to fit well into the surrounding Conservation Area and would be desirable from both a sale and letting perspective, following the completion of the building works.
Location
Locks Cottages are set well back from Church Road, which passes through the centre of the attractive south-west Suffolk village of Little Thurlow.
There is a primary school and Public House within the village and further facilities in Great Thurlow including a garage/local store.
Further comprehensive facilities are available in Newmarket, the home of English racing, and the high tech University City of Cambridge. Independent schooling is available in the locality at nearby Barnadiston, Saffron Walden and Cambridge.
Mainline rail services are available from Audley End station just outside Saffron Walden which leads to Liverpool Street, London and north to Cambridge.
All distances and times are approximate.
Square Footage: 1,620 sq ft
Acreage: 0.32 Acres
Additional Info
Driveways that are outlined in blue in the plans are to be maintained in ownership by the current owners with full right of way access granted to both plots. Both of the driveways form part of the planning and are to be built out by the new owners of the site.
Both properties which are to be demolished as part of the re development contain asbestos. The owners commissioned a full survey for the asbestos which is available upon request.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 29, 2023
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
