How we arrive at a figure for land in Surrey
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.
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.

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

The legal work

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.
Heritage
Listed buildings and conservation areas are managed with Historic England and the council's conservation team.
When the land isn't straightforward
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
- Your title number, if you know it

Your questions answered
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.
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 cover the villages around Camberley?
Yes. Villages between Camberley, Sandhurst and Farnborough often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
