Land we're keen to see around Feltham
- Traditional brick, stone or timber barns
- Farmyards with several buildings and hardstanding
- Buildings with existing road access
- Buildings already granted planning permission
Redundant farm buildings can be worth far more as homes than as storage. The route to consent depends on the building, its location and whether you're in England or Wales.
The things that move our offer
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.
Services
Water, power and drainage to remote buildings can be expensive.
Agricultural use history
Class Q rights depend on the building's past agricultural use.
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.

Rules that apply in England
Planning framework
Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.
Agricultural buildings (Class Q)
In England, Class Q permitted development can allow some agricultural buildings to become homes through prior approval, within limits on size and number of homes.
Farm tenancies
Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies have their own notice and compensation rules, which affect when land can be developed.
Awkward details we deal with
You're not sure Class Q applies
In England, Class Q has detailed limits and conditions. We check eligibility before assuming it.
The barn is listed
Listed barns can still be converted with consent, but the design must respect the building.
Useful to send us
- The address or postcode
- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- Photos of the land and its access
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
Common questions
What is Class Q?
Class Q is a permitted development right in England that allows some agricultural buildings to become homes through a prior approval process, rather than a full planning application, subject to limits and conditions.
Will you buy a barn in poor condition?
Yes, but condition affects the planning route and the cost, so it affects the price.
Do I need surveys before selling?
No. We arrange what we need. If you already have structural or ecology surveys, they help.
