Introduction
With planning consent approved in late 2023, Holly Farm offers an opportunity
for developers or end - users to renovate a farmhouse and two barns in a rural
location in south Norfolk.
The approved planning offers the flexibility for the farmhouse to be separated
from the two barns where it would retain its existing entrance and 0. 8 acres
of grounds. Meanwhile the barns (the smaller of which would be an annex to the
larger) would use the existing entrance and would share a plot measuring just
over a third of an acre.
**The farm house**
The farmhouse is currently occupied, although it requires renovation
throughout. As the floorplan shows, in its existing guise its ground floor
provides two reception rooms, a kitchen, a laundry, a large storeroom, a boot
room and a pantry.
The sitting room and the dining room both orientate around a central chimney
which opens into a handsome red - brick fireplace with a log burner (in the
sitting room). There are three bedrooms on the first floor and a family
bathroom.
A re - configuration of the house, including converting both floors of the
northern elevation of the building into bedroom and reception space would
create a good sized five - bedroom, three - reception room home with a pleasant
outlook.
**Timber - framed barn conversion**
A timber - framed barn to the rear of the house has consent for conversion into
a 1348 square foot, detached dwelling.
If built to its approved plans, the completed dwelling will include an open -
plan kitchen/dining/living space, four bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms
arranged over two floors, and accessed via two staircases.
**Single story barn conversion**
A derelict, single storey outbuilding on the northern boundary has been
granted consent for conversion into a 1512 square foot, two - bedroom annexe
with a study, a family bathroom, a large sitting room, and a separate kitchen.
Once completed, this building would function well as a granny annexe, a
holiday let or a work - from - home office for multiple staff.
**The grounds**
The grounds are mostly private and the larger lawn and patio to the front and
side of the house both enjoy southerly aspects. There is a pond on the
southern boundary and a variety of trees interspersed between well - tended
beds.
Beyond those buildings with planning consent, there are a number of additional
buildings (including a cart lodge) which could be demolished or improved to
make a garage and/or workshop.
**Location**
Holly Farm is located in a peaceful location on Common Road in Bressingham
Common, two miles from Bressingham’s Primary School and village shop. Diss is
around three and a half miles from the farm where all essential services are
on offer including supermarkets and a train station which provides services to
Norwich, Ipswich and London Liverpool Street.

**Points to note**
We understand the farm is connected to mains water and electric. The house is
currently heated via an oil - fired central heating system and has a private
sewerage system. It is registered within Council Tax Band D and has broadband
speed in the region of 190 – 30 Mbps. EPC rating G.
The development is subject to a Community Infrastructure Levy (cil) based on
the square footage of the converted buildings. Based on the execution of the
approved plans by a property developer the total exposure will be £19, 238. 00.
The planning expires in October 2026 and is subject to conditions including
the installation of bat and owl boxes.
A 2021 wayleave agreement exists with Eastern Power Networks.
A planning application for an Anaerobic Digester has been refused in the area,
with a subsequent demolition order placed. The plant (which is already
partially built) is around 600 meters from Holly Farm but is completely out of
sight.
