A residential development site with outline planning permission for the construction of two detached dwellings on a site of just under 1.5 acres within the Parish of Yoxford

Location
The property is located on the Westleton Road, just off the A12 within the Parish of Yoxford.  Yoxford is a very popular village with a village store, an assortment of antique shops and galleries, a primary school, two pubs, a café and two restaurants. It is also home to the annual Arts Festival, held in August each year, which features musicians, actors and poets with many workshops, master classes and exhibitions being held in the village. The village is located adjacent to the A12 trunk road giving it easy access to the north and south of the County, as well as the nearby market town of Saxmundham, just 4½ miles to the south, which provides a good selection of amenities, including Waitrose and Tesco supermarkets, banks, doctors surgery, chemist, ironmongers and dry cleaners. The Heritage Coast is nearby with the popular coastal resorts of Aldeburgh, Dunwich, Southwold and Walberswick, and the pretty villages of Westleton and Snape, the latter being home to Aldeburgh Music. The internationally renowned RSPB Minsmere, with its fantastic coastal nature reserve, and previously home to the BBC Springwatch, is only 5½ miles to the east. The nearby railway station at Darsham, which is within walking distance of the plot, provides regular services to Ipswich and London Liverpool Street Station. 

Description
There is currently a pre-fabricated bungalow on the site where the vendor resides.

Outline planning permission was granted by East Suffolk Council on 28th November 2024 under reference DC/24/2664/OUT, for the demolition of an existing dwelling with associated outbuildings and the construction of two dwellings including a new access and cart lodge.

The two proposed dwellings are essentially identical in design albeit are mirrored.  They will extend to 180 sqm(1,937 sq ft).  The proposed accommodation will comprise hallway, cloakroom, kitchen/dining room, utility room, snug and sitting room.  On the first floor will be four bedrooms along with an en-suite and bathroom.  

Outside there will be a shared entrance and driveway arrangement that will lead to the respective parking areas serving each dwelling.  One of the dwellings will have a double cart lodge.  A block plan of the proposed site is included within the particulars.  Within the particulars there is a larger site plan which indicatively shows the area being sold.  This is an extensive area of garden/meadow which in all extends to approximately 1.5 acres.

CIL
The planning permission will be subject to the local planning authority’s Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL).  As it is an outline permission, there is no CIL Liability Notice in place as yet.  There is likely to be a CIL Liability and interested parties should carry out their own research with regard to this with the local Infrastructure team at East Suffolk Council’s planning department.
