Renovation to swap in Norfolk, United Kingdom (Ref: 578)

An important re-development opportunity adjacent to the historical priory and within an existing residential area which has detailed planning permission for 26 units comprising conversion of 6 unlisted buildings, 5 listed buildings and construction of 15 new 2 storey houses, all in a magnificent courtyard setting.

The site is located to the north west of the ruins of The Priory of St Mary and stands on the western edge of Thetford town(A 11) within easy walking distance of the main line station giving access to Norwich and Cambridge(25 mins each).London Kings Cross Station 1hr25 mins. The site was originally part of a small agricultural estate which reached its peak in the mid 19th century. In 1932 the estate was purchased for the nation with the farm passing to the Local Authority for use as a works depot and the farm house returning to private ownership. After the closure of the Abbey Farm depot by the Local Authority in the 1990's the substantial timber frames of two monastic farm buildings were discovered within the former farm complex. This site is obviously of great historical interest and will form a most spectacular mixed development.The buildings are in good condition for their age and are structurally sound.
