Description
The three plots offer buyers an exciting opportunity to construct their own second home in a lovely rural area.  The planning permissions, which have been implemented (Mid Suffolk District Council reference DC/22/04908 and DC/25/03297) state that each unit should not be occupied other than for holiday purposes and shall not be used as a residential dwelling.  No person/s shall occupy any of the unit/s for a continued period of more than 11 months at any one time.  It should be noted that whilst the buyers friends and family can use the lodge, it cannot be let as a commercial enterprise.  The buyer will need to keep a register, which can be made available to the local planning authority with details of their name, permanent home address and vehicle registration.  Some of the plans associated with the planning permission are within the particulars but further details can be found on the Mid Suffolk District Council Planning website.  All of the photographs of the completed lodges are a guide only of what can be built and potential finishes.

The site itself has been landscaped with regard to parking and hedging.  The concrete bases have been  installed ready for the construction of the timber lodge.  In addition, electricity and water are installed to each plot and the seller will be installing a shared sewage treatment plant.  The vendor, who has experience of constructing other very similar lodges, has obtained quotes for all the works including the installation of kitchens/bathrooms at a figure of £95,300 + VAT.  The agents have a full breakdown of quotes that can be emailed to individual parties.  Subject to scheduling and confirmation of costs at the point of instruction, trades are lined up to commence the build of each lodge.

Community Infrastructure Levy
We understand that there is no Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) associated with the planning permission.

Service Charge
The initial annual service charge will be £700 per year per lodge and this will cover the emptying/servicing of the sewage treatment plant along with its electricity costs; maintenance of the shared areas; rubbish disposal; an administration charge and water.  (Each unit has its own electricity supply and there will be a submeter for water which will be charged at the prevailing rate).
