This project has transformed an existing 2-storey property from a derelict agricultural outbuilding into a new residential development of two separate dwellings.
The existing building comprises a stone-built barn with partially demolished rear extension, and a partly demolished Ging-Gang.
The scheme included the demolition and rebuild of the rear extension, provision of a new roof on new timber king-post trusses and a new first floor level throughout the existing building, as well as the construction of a new Ging-Gang to provide near 360° views from a new Living Room.
The development provides a new 2-bedroom dwelling, alongside a new 4-bedroom property, thus providing an excellent mix of residential stock.
