Summary - Withersfield, Haverhill, Suffolk CB9 7SE
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Large rural plot with approved 3,000 sq ft replacement — prime for rebuild or renovation.
0.35 acre plot with wide countryside views
Set on about 0.35 acres in attractive Suffolk countryside, this detached mid‑20th century house is a practical renovation project with clear upside. The existing property is liveable but neglected, offering a large, overgrown garden, an integrated garage and broad village views — a good base for someone wanting outdoor space and privacy.
The key commercial advantage is planning permission for a substantial replacement dwelling (circa 3,000 sq ft) with a double cart lodge, gated entrance and a south‑facing dining terrace. The proposed design shows an open‑plan ground floor with a separate sitting room and home office, plus four generous first‑floor bedrooms including an impressive master suite with countryside outlooks. Services for the new build would be installed on site.
Practical realities are straightforward and should be factored into any offer: the current house needs renovation, the plot will require clearance and landscaping, and statutory checks should be made on the approved planning drawings and conditions. The site is freehold, with no flood risk and good road links — Cambridge is about 17 miles away and the A14/M11 are accessible for wider commuting.
This property suits a family or buyer seeking a rural rebuild opportunity with immediate garden space and planning consent already secured. It offers a clear route to a much larger, modern family home, but will require budget and project management for demolition/rebuild or full renovation of the existing structure.
