Description

Snowball Farm Barns are approached via a shared private access road leading south to the traditional stone and brick single storey farm buildings. Once converted to residential use, these barns will enjoy views over open countryside to the south, east and west. The permitted layout of the converted barn takes full advantage of the extensive views to the south over the Buckinghamshire countryside. Prior approval 24/00182/COUAR was granted by Buckinghamshire Council on 11th March 2024 for the conversion of the buildings into two residential dwellings. Unit one extending to 200 sq. metres (2153 sq. ft.) and unit two 205 sq. metres (2207 sq. ft.) of gross internal area respectively. However, given the rural setting on the barns, purchasers may wish to explore planning approval for conversion to a single dwelling with a potential gross internal area of approximately 405 sq. metres (4360 sq. ft). In addition to the traditional barns, adjoining hard standing and private access (truncated)
