We have helped many clients transform barns and outhouses into characteristic living accommodation. Barn conversions are highly desirable as the building structure lends itself well to contemporary architectural high-spec designs with vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, open-plan layouts and mezzanine floors. We can build modern conversions that retain their rustic charm. To discuss your ideas for barn conversions in Tiverton, get in touch for expert help and advice.
If you have seen a potential barn conversion project for sale or have a barn on your own land that can be converted, speak to us for professional advice on our conversion services. We can provide a site survey, make recommendations and give you a rough estimate on the total building costs. Our team can convert timber, brick and block, cob and stone barns into beautiful, contemporary homes, guest houses and garden offices. We can also provide external landscaping including hardscaping, driveways, patios and pathways.
Converting a barn is always an exciting project. They offer an abundance of design opportunities so you can create an impressive finish. Some barn conversion ideas include:
If the property is located close to utility supplies such as gas, water, electricity and sewers, we can advise which supplier to contact for your conversion to be connected to these supplies. In cases where the property is not close to these utilities, we can advise on solar panel installation, ground and air source heat pumps, generators, oil fired heating, biofuel heating systems and sewage treatment plants.
The planning requirement will depend on certain factors. If the building is listed you will need to apply for listed building consent. Many barns are subject to permitted development rights (Class Q) which permit an agricultural building to be converted for residential use.
We can point you in the right direction for advice relating to the type of planning permission you will need to obtain, so contact us to arrange a site survey.
Because the shell of the building (barn) is already in place, there is no need to hire an architect or similar professional.
Once all planning has been submitted, the conversion usually takes a minimum of 5 weeks. This will depend however on the size of the conversion and the materials needed. Contact us for more information and a quotation.
