** FULL PLANNING GRANTED **

The consented scheme offers the chance to create a truly individual home, blending the character and scale of former agricultural buildings with the comfort, layout and energy performance expected of modern living. Once completed, the proposed dwelling will provide spacious and versatile accommodation, ideal for family life, entertaining and those seeking a more peaceful semi-rural lifestyle without compromising on access to village facilities and wider transport links.
