Bradshaws Barns, Kelmscott, Lechlade, Oxfordshire, GL7 3HD

The site comprises a range of period barns on a site of approximately 5.2 acres  clustered around a Georgian farmhouse (available separately).  The main barns with strong potential for residential conversion are two traditional C18th Cotswold stone barns, a 1900's re brick barn and two single storey period stone barns. There is substantial Dutch barn, a number of general purpose steel barns and some former piggery buildings which are not considered likely to secure planning and would be demolished as part of a wider residential scheme.

The site is within Kelmscott Conservation Area and lies on the edge of the village. The two Cotswold barns are Grade II Listed. 

Locally based architects have prepared an indicative scheme for a residential conversion the key barns,  in all potentially extending to approximately 18,000 sq ft. (See attached floor plan)

These barns are to be sold without planning but with strong potential for a new owner to secure a planning consent permitting a residential conversion scheme. Support for this is provided by Pre-Ap advice given by West Oxfordshire District Council.  To note that the advice was more positive for residential conversion of the wider barns than for employment or holiday use. (Please contact the marketing agent for a copy of the advice).

Our vendors previously sold a third Cotswold barn on which the new owners subsequently secured planning for  conversion to a 3 bed dwelling, planning ref: 23/01824/FUL  and 23/01825/LBC.

Please note there is an overage clause imposed by the Church Commissioners which would be triggered once the buildings have a residential or higher value planning consent, the payment under which is assessed as being 30% of the difference between the market value of the current barns before and after the planning permission. (Please contact the selling agents for any further clarity on this point.)

There is mains power and water on the site. Foul sewage would need to be by way of a new Sewage Treament Plant
