RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY IN A RURAL SETTING

About this property

  • The buildings at Rise Hall comprise a significant range of traditional farm buildings sitting in approximately 1 acre at the top of a long drive adjacent to the impressive Georgian property, Rise Hall.

    A large L-shaped timber framed, brick barn sits at the centre of the site with various smaller additions surrounding it including a dilapidated Dutch barn and a range of cart lodges which are also in a poor state of repair. The barns have impressive views out over rolling countryside to the south and west with the charming but rarely used Akenham Church sitting just to the north east.

    Planning consent was granted in 2004 for the conversion and renovation of the buildings to form two residential dwellings. Confirmation that a material commencement of the permission has been made was received in a letter dated September 2009.

The buildings at Rise Hall offer a great opportunity to create a unique residential complex in a desirable rural setting.
