Barn Conversion under a Lawful Development Certificate

Including a covered walkway linking the house to the barn conversion, and internal alterations to the house.

The Project

Something different from the norm with this exciting barn conversion. We wanted to share this fabulous little project which we've just submitted for a barn conversion under a Lawful Development Certificate to include conversion of stables, adding another door to the rear of the building, while linking the barn to the house with a covered walkway and also including some internal alterations to the utility. This is a slightly different approach that submitting a planning application, but still enables our clients to make full use of their property.

Lawful Development
The existing barn is a beautiful red brick with a pantile roof, and our proposal is very sympathetic and will not bear too much impact to the façade. The barn is an open space with original feeding troughs and has two adjoining stables which the conversion forms part of our proposal under the Lawful Development Certificate.
Proposed

 

The existing barn is being used recreationally but our clients wanted to make the most of the available space by incorporating some of the stable/store area too, and include a home office.

The proposal includes an open covered walkway, built in Oak with a solid, tiled roof to complement the house and barn conversion, this links the buildings while offering practical solutions for accessing the large garden and oil tank which will be screened.

Sometimes this type of project is in a grey area as to whether it's Permitted Development so with some advice from Local Planning Authority, we submitted the application for a Lawful Development Certificate.
