Is your land near Llandrindod Wells a good fit?

  • Traditional brick, stone or timber barns

What affects the price

Structural condition

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

Protected species

Bats and barn owls are common in old barns and surveys may be needed.

Services

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

Retained land

Selling buildings from a working farm needs rights carefully reserved.

Rules that apply in Wales

Agricultural buildings

England's Class Q rights don't apply in Wales. Converting a barn to a home in Wales generally needs planning permission.

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.

When the land isn't straightforward

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

Questions from landowners near Llandrindod Wells

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.

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.

Do you cover the villages around Llandrindod Wells?

Yes. Villages between Llandrindod Wells, Newtown and Brecon often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
