Set in a peaceful hamlet near Westbury, this substantial former agricultural barn offers a rare chance to create a bespoke 3-bedroom home. Class Q permitted development consent (Ref: PL/2024/02830) was granted on 20 June 2024 to convert the barn into a dwelling of about 1,668 sq ft; conversion must be completed within three years. Mains water and electricity are already connected and the site includes garage parking.
The plot extends to approximately 4.31 acres of pasture directly behind the barn, with a further 12.35 acres available by separate negotiation. The location delivers wide countryside views and a tranquil rural setting while remaining around 1.5 miles from Westbury for rail and road links (A350/M4 connections).
This is a project for buyers prepared to manage a conversion: the building requires full adaptation to residential standards and the usual Class Q limitations apply. Broadband and mobile signals are average and the tenure is not specified — buyers should confirm tenure, utilities, and planning conditions before exchange. The site may also support a fallback application to erect a new dwelling instead of conversion, subject to local approvals.
For those seeking a spacious rural plot and the opportunity to design a contemporary, low-maintenance home, this barn presents strong development potential. The setting suits owners wanting privacy, equestrian or smallholding uses, or an expansive garden; practical considerations and build costs should be factored into any offer.
