A substantial modern farm building with Class Q planning offers a rare conversion opportunity in a peaceful rural setting near South Brent. The permitted change of use (0686/24/PDM) allows a single dwelling currently shown as a six‑bedroom home with mezzanine, creating spacious living across a very large footprint (4,395 sq ft). The site includes approximately ½ acre of adjacent paddock and enjoys panoramic countryside outlooks and strong privacy.
This is a developer/investor proposition: no services are connected and the consent requires removal of two additional on‑site barns before development. The permission must be implemented within three years of the approval date (30/04/2024), so buyers should factor in statutory deadlines, site clearance and statutory approvals for any design changes (STPP).
Practical constraints are material and should be budgeted: high flood risk, very slow broadband and the need to install full services and internal fit‑out. Conversely, excellent mobile signal, low local crime and an affluent, desirably rural catchment add appeal for a high‑quality bespoke conversion, holiday let or long‑term rental once completed.
Sale is by informal tender; interested parties should confirm timescales and statutory requirements before bidding. This is best suited to purchasers prepared to lead a full conversion programme, manage remedial works and meet planning conditions to create a distinctive countryside home.
