Location

Situated in the rural hamlet of Denham, this location enjoys a peaceful countryside setting surrounded by open farmland and attractive Suffolk scenery. While offering a sense of space and seclusion, the property remains within easy reach of the nearby market town of Eye, which provides a range of independent shops, cafés, pubs, and everyday amenities. Additional services can be found in neighbouring villages, including schooling and community facilities.

For those travelling further afield, the larger town of Diss is within convenient reach and offers a wider selection of supermarkets, leisure facilities, healthcare services, and a mainline railway station with direct services to Norwich and London Liverpool Street. The surrounding area is ideal for enjoying country walks, cycling routes, and the natural beauty of the Suffolk countryside.

Coldham Hill

Approached via a private entrance, the site opens into a substantial hardstanding area that provides excellent accessibility for vehicles, machinery and general operations. The layout has been designed to support commercial activity, with generous circulation space throughout and a range of existing structures positioned across the grounds.

A key feature of the site is the collection of nine polytunnels, each extending to approximately 1,520 sqft, creating a significant amount of covered growing, storage or operational space. These are complemented by a large packing shed/cold store, workshop/tool shed and two shipping containers, offering practical storage solutions and flexibility for a variety of uses.

The site also benefits from a park home currently utilised as office accommodation, alongside a separate timber office building. Together, these provide useful administrative space and facilities for day-to-day operations, allowing business and practical functions to be managed directly from the site.

Beyond the established infrastructure, the grounds offer a striking rural environment. Mature trees surround much of the site, creating a natural screen from neighbouring land and contributing to the sense of privacy and seclusion. Open areas of grassland provide further flexibility, while the abundance of local wildlife enhances the appeal of this peaceful countryside setting.

Positioned within the North Suffolk countryside yet remaining accessible to nearby villages, market towns and transport links, Coldham Wood Mushrooms represents an unusual opportunity to acquire a substantial and adaptable site with considerable potential for a range of future uses, subject to any necessary planning permissions and consents.
