Where do I look for a barn to convert and how easy it is to find one? |
Finding a viable barn to convert is becoming increasingly difficult. The popularity of barn conversions has seen developers buy up thousands of run-down barns across the country.
However, there are still hundreds, if not thousands, of barns in the UK that could be turned into lovely homes. And, as you would expect, the internet is the best way to find them.
There are several websites listing barns for sale in the UK. One of the best is www.barnsetc.co.uk which also provides discussion on a wide range of barn conversion issues.
During your search, you'll probably come across several barns being sold with planning permission attached. Although this saves you a great deal of time and energy, you will certainly pay for this privilege. The asking price will usually include a huge premium to reflect the presence of planning permission, sometimes well into six figures.
