Kentchurch, Hereford, Herefordshire, HR2

Traditional barns with Class Q consent for residential conversion of approximately 4,455 sq. ft.

Description

Lot 2: Little Corras Barns
There is an attractive courtyard of traditional stone barns and further modern farm buildings.

In their existing condition, the barns provide useful storage space but also lend themselves to alternative uses, such as stabling/equestrian facilities, conversion to pool, gym or other leisure facilities, ‘party barn', as well as the current proposed use for residential conversion.

Existing Barns
The traditional barns comprise, a large stone, timber frame Threshing Barn under a fibre cement roof with a flagstone floor. There is a single storey stone barn split into two stores, and attached, is a brick and timber clad lean-to currently used as a WC. A further single storey, stone barn with stable doors under a metal corrugated roof.

Adjacent to the Threshing barn, is a concrete block lean-to under a corrugated metal roof, with doors on one side opening into the yard and further concrete block workshop/store under a fibre cement roof.

To the rear of the courtyard of traditional barns, is a set of three steel portal frame livestock buildings, with concrete block walls, under a fibre cement roof.

Proposed Development
Herefordshire Council has given Prior Approval for a Class Q conversion of the barns to a single, larger dwellinghouse comprising three reception rooms and four en-suite bedrooms, plus office space, utility/boot room and garaging.

Once converted, the house will provide approximately 3,971 sq. ft. (369 sq. m.) of accommodation, plus garaging of approximately 484 sq. ft. (45 sq. m.).

On the ground floor, the house will benefit from an entrance hall, open plan kitchen/dining room, sitting room, library, master bedroom with dressing room and en-suite, further bedroom with en-suite and boot room leading to garaging for two cars. A separate building also provides an office space/home gym/leisure facility.

A spiral staircase leads up to the first floor, providing two further bedrooms, both with en-suite.

Outside, there is an outdoor entertaining space in the middle of the courtyard, with stairs leading up to a terraced patio. To the rear of the house, is ample opportunity to create an enclosed garden and parking area.

The planning permission also includes approval for a separate access, which is to be retained by Kentchurch Estate and may be available by separate negotiation.

Little Corras Farmhouse (Lot 1) is also available separately with a guide price of £495,000.
