Planning permission was granted by Mid Suffolk District Council for the construction of a three bedroom dwelling on a site of 0.15 acres. The property will comprise entrance hall, kitchen, living room, utility room and downstairs cloakroom.  Three first floor bedrooms, dressing room and family bathroom.   
Approximately 1268 sq ft (117m²).   

Location
Whilst the postal address lists the property as Horham, it really is closer to the small hamlet of Athelington, which is a pretty, rural village lying mid way between the towns of Framlingham and Eye offering an excellent network of maintained footpaths and bridleways. Horham itself offers a community centre and nearby is the larger village of Stradbroke offering excellent schooling, a health centre, leisure centre, library, shops, two public houses, and businesses. Diss is under 20 minutes by car and here there are both Morrisons and Tesco supermarkets, as well as a railway station with services between Norwich and London’s Liverpool Street. The historic market town of Eye is just 6 miles away and here there are day to day shopping facilities, a health centre, library and good schooling. Framlingham, with its array of local shops, is approximately 10 miles from the property and offers state and public schooling.
