Class Q Approval for the Conversion of an Agricultural Building into a Dwelling
9th June 2023 -
We have received Class Q Approval for the conversion of an Agricultural Building into a new dwelling under permitted development.
About Class Q -
Class Q application are a form of permitted development which allows agricultural buildings to be converted under prior approval from the local planning authority.
There is a limit on the total size which can be converted and a set of strict rules which must be follows. In this case the existing building was too large to be fully converted, however we were able to convert the central part of the building into internal accommodation whilst also allowing the existing structure to remain to frame the outside areas. This included a covered car port.
This project seeks to be self sufficient with a large photovoltaic array and battery storage.
