Description:

A fantastic opportunity to create your very own Grand Design; sitting on a 0.5 acre plot in rural Suffolk.

Hazelwood comprises a 3 bed detached house dating back to the early 19th Century situated on the edge of the village of Wickham Skeith (with the advantage of being un-listed); set in grounds of 0.5 acres with far reaching views over surrounding farmland. The property comprises 2 reception rooms, 3 bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and single garage. Full Planning permission has been granted (following an appeal) to replace the house with a new dwelling of approx. 200 sq m with a workshop to the rear of the site.

The property benefits from two street frontages. The main driveway entrance is from The Street to a driveway and parking area. A secondary vehicular access is to the rear of the property, off Cotton Lane. The rear garden is south facing and is laid mainly to lawn. Mature hedging separates a further area of garden which overlooks open farmland. Standing within the rear garden is a static caravan, a large outbuilding and greenhouse. Overall the property extends to 0.5 acres (0.20 ha).

Full Planning permission has been granted (2145/13) for a new dwelling which would comprise an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, family room, study, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, 3 bedrooms (2 with ensuite), bathroom and integral garage. Full details can be found on the Mid-Suffolk Council Planning website.

Hazelwood is situated at the western end of Wickham Skeith and has the address of The Street but is shown as Wickham Road on Google Maps.

Directions
From Ipswich, take the A14 for approx 8 miles until you see the slip road for the A140. Head north along the A140 towards Diss: Do not take the first turn off sign-posted Wickham Skeith, but continue on A140 until you see The White Horse Public House turn left here (Wickham Road) and follow the road into the village of Wickham Skeith. In The Street (which forms part of Wickham Road), the property is the last house on the left hand side before heading in the direction of Finningham.
