Description

A unique opportunity to purchase an exclusive part completed development site with planning permission for eight contemporary yet characterful barn conversions situated in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside.

An outstanding opportunity to acquire a residential development scheme of Grade II listed agricultural barns with full planning permission and Listed Building Consent for conversion into eight luxury homes. The scheme successfully combines the character and history of traditional farm buildings with high-quality contemporary design.

The development is already well progressed, with significant conversion works undertaken across the barns.

The approved designs have been thoughtfully prepared to showcase the unique architectural features of the historic buildings, including vaulted spaces, exposed timbers and original structural elements, whilst incorporating modern open-plan layouts suited to contemporary living.

The scheme will create a range of attractive single and two-storey dwellings, providing a balanced mix of 2, 3 and 4-bedroom homes designed to appeal to a broad section of the market.

Each residence benefits from its own private garden with exceptional countryside views.

The scheme is accessed from quiet country lanes across a private farm track.

The scheme offers a rare chance to acquire and complete a distinctive collection of eight high-quality countryside homes within an attractive historic farmstead setting.

A website has been created to showcase the scheme and can be found at:
