A rare and exciting opportunity has arisen for renovators and developers after a two-storey stone barn has become available for £395,000.
The barn near the heart of the village of Wellow has planning permission to be converted into a home and features on Homebuilding & Renovating's sister site Plotfinder.
This building plot offers a unique chance to create a bespoke home in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that includes some historic features.
Permission granted for conversion
This plot has been granted planning permission to convert the detached stone barn into a house and separate self contained apartment.
The proposals mean the stone barn and associated building can be combined to create a new home and an independent flat with ancillary use for the main building.
Change of use to the land from agricultural to residential has also been granted.
Plans pay homage to plot's history
The plans for the conversion include a range of changes but that also pay homage to the history of the property.

Plans include tall timber doors opening to an entrance lobby in this Grade II listed home, leading through a glazed door into a vaulted hallway.
At the rear, glazed doors will open to a patio whilst two independent staircases ascend to the first-floor bedrooms. To the right is an office, which can also serve as a ground-floor bedroom, and a cloakroom and to the left is a generous sitting room featuring a skylight and wood-burning stove.
Twin-glazed doors from the sitting room lead into a lobby area with a wet room, utility room, and garden access and separate twin-glazed doors also open to the kitchen/dining room.

Situated in Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
The village of Wellow offers an incredible location in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the southern edge of the city of Bath.
The home is surrounded by countryside and neighbouring farms whilst also providing land with a courtyard parking area with enough space for three vehicles and more room for a patio at the rear.
The barn is available for £395,000 with more details accessible on the Plotfinder website.
