Search the Public Notice PortalPlans to convert former agricultural buildings on a farm outside of Ipswich into new homes have been rejected.
East Suffolk Council rejected the plans for Toad Hall Farm at Nacton on the basis of a lack of assessments of the area and a lack of parking, calling the plans "undesirable."
The plans would have seen the conversion of a former agricultural building into a one-storey home and two two-storey homes.
Currently, a portion of the building is used as shop that sells ski equipment.
In its letter of refusal, East Suffolk Council said: "Insufficient information has been submitted regarding how the building complies with the definition of a former agricultural building and details of the established agricultural unit have not been provided."
As well as this, a lack of parking and amenities for potential residents in the plans led to East Suffolk Council calling the proposal "undesirable for future occupants".
A noise impact assessment had also not been completed by the applicant.
