A rare redevelopment opportunity in Ufton Nervet: a derelict farm complex with full planning permission to convert the barns into a single, contemporary five-bedroom residence totalling about 6,717 sq ft. The consented scheme includes flexible living areas, a substantial principal suite, an annexe option and a triple garage, all set within a private 0.71-acre plot with countryside views. This is well suited to a family wanting a large, bespoke home or a self-builder seeking CIL relief and scope to retain character features such as exposed trusses and cladding where structurally sound.
The buildings are currently agricultural and described as dilapidated; substantial refurbishment and completion works will be required to realise the approved design. The planning reference (24/00596/FUL) covers conversion, landscaping and associated works — buyers should satisfy themselves on planning and building regulations compliance, costs and timescales before committing. Services, internal finishes and external landscaping will need completion to the consented specification.
Location is a definite strength: a quiet hamlet between Newbury and Reading with good road links and nearby stations offering fast rail into London (approximately 40 minutes from Reading). The plot offers privacy, generous outdoor space and secure off-street parking in a triple garage. Consider practical matters such as build programme, party wall or agricultural constraints, and the likely budget for full conversion and fit-out when assessing value.
