What makes barns and rural buildings near Mold worth an offer

  • Traditional brick, stone or timber barns
  • Buildings already granted planning permission
  • Former agricultural buildings in or near villages
  • Redundant poultry, dairy or livestock units

A yard of old buildings can become a small group of homes. We'll tell you which buildings are worth converting and which are better replaced.

What affects the price

Planning route

Full planning and, in England, Class Q prior approval follow different rules and limits.

Structural condition

Conversions generally need a building strong enough to convert without rebuilding.

Listed status

Listed and curtilage-listed buildings need listed building consent and careful design.

Services

Water, power and drainage to remote buildings can be expensive.

Four routes to a sale

Outright purchase

Suits buildings with consent or prior approval already in place.

Subject-to-planning sale

We complete once planning consent is secured.

Option agreements

Less common for single buildings but can suit whole farmyards.

Joint ventures

Worth considering for a larger yard you'd like to see developed well.

What happens next

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We do the homework

    We read the title and planning record and check flood risk and access.

  3. You get a written offer

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

Rules that apply in Wales

Planning framework

Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.

Heritage

Listed buildings and scheduled monuments in Wales are managed with Cadw and the council's conservation officers.

Farm tenancies

Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies apply in Wales as in England, with their own notice and compensation rules.

Awkward details we deal with

The barn is listed

Listed barns can still be converted with consent, but the design must respect the building.

You're in Wales

Welsh permitted development rules differ from England's, so barn conversions here generally need planning permission. We look at the route under Welsh policy.

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Your questions answered

Will you buy a barn in poor condition?

Yes, but condition affects the planning route and the cost, so it affects the price.

Can I sell buildings and keep the land around them?

Yes. We can agree a boundary that suits both of us, with access rights protected.

What if bats are present?

Bat roosts don't usually stop a conversion, but they need surveys, licences and timing. We allow for this in the offer.

Do you buy land in Mold?

Yes. We consider land in and around Mold and across Clwyd. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
