I can remember the day when we were first asked by a quantity surveyor that we had been working with on another project down in London, if we would be interested in barn conversion work to turn some existing farm buildings into offices.
At that time, back in 1997, this was a massive job which was quite daunting. After meeting the owner, Mark Adams, and showing him some of the other barn conversions that had resold at great prices, he offered the project to us.
Mark was so pleased with the completed project that since that time three further barns have been converted to offices. He even asked us to do the work on his own house, building new guest bedrooms and a bathroom.
His latest project being 10,000 square feet of an existing grain barn, which we stripped and converted to form four luxury air-conditioned office units.
I’ve always wanted to convert an old barn. They have so much character compared to new builds.
There’s a barn that I drive past every day to work that is just fantastic but I’m not sure if it would be for sale and if i’d get planning permission. Do you have experience on this side of the builds?
Many thanks, Nick
