PLANNING POTENTIAL

The vendor is set to submit for full planning
permission for the upper parts (first and
second floors) to convert the existing vacant
office space measuring 51,683sqft into
residential accommodation.

                                                                                                                  2 6 -3 2 C A R R S T R E E T, I P S W I C H I P 4 1 E J
This application will propose converting the
B1 space to 60-private apartments (32 x 1
beds, 25 x 2 beds, 3 x 3 beds). The permission
would require full refurbishment of the
internal floors and some additional works to
the external of the building.
