Development site offering Class Q consent for two stunning barn conversions.

Meadowcroft Barn Development is located on Melton Road, Scalford. These conversions offer a unique opportunity to create two distinctive local homes that both blend rustic charm with modern living.

The two barns, plot 1 and plot 2, measure 232 m² and 231 m² respectively.

Set back from the road with stunning panoramic views. The site extends to just over 2 acres and each barn will have its own paddock of approximately one acre. The paddocks are indicated in red and blue on the plans.

Artists impressions are included within the marketing brochure but any buyer can put their own stamp on the final layouts / finishes.

Superb opportunity in a highly desirable location.
