What is a barn conversion?
A barn conversion refers to the process of transforming an agricultural building, such as a barn, granary, or stable, into a residential dwelling. These conversions have become increasingly popular in recent years, as more people seek unique and characterful homes that offer a sense of history and tradition.
The conversion process typically involves significant alterations to the building’s interior and exterior, including the installation of modern amenities such as heating, plumbing, and electricity. The goal is to create a comfortable and functional living space while preserving the original features and charm of the building.
