Property Description
A unique opportunity to convert one of Sudbury s most iconic period buildings into two substantial dwellings
Discreetly positioned on elevated ground, Belle Vue House dates from 1875 and is one of Sudbury s most important and notable period buildings. Two nationally leading architects at the time, Spalding & Knight, were commissioned to design and build the residence for a local solicitor, Henry Canham. Despite its significance to the town and its imposing Victorian architecture, the Villa is not listed under Historic England and falls outside of Sudbury s conservation area. Originally the house once stood in some five acres, which now mostly forms the adjacent Belle Vue Park to the south. The residual amenity land in all covers some 0.65 acres with independent access directly onto Newton Road.Internally, the house remains virtually unaltered since it was built, and any modern stud partitions to the rooms, as well as a single storey extension to the east can be removed with relative ease. Although the house has been disused since 2016, the building is generally in good condition, and numerous features of its period are well preserved which includes the original tiled entrance hall, hardwood staircase, window shutters, cornicing, ornate fireplaces and the magnificent stained glass windows to the eastern end half landing. PlanningDetailed planning consent was granted on the 29th November 2023 for the restoration and conversion of Belle Vue House for two residential dwellings covering about 367.4 sq.m (3,955 sq.ft) and 289.2sq.m (3112 sq.ft) respectively.
