Breathtakingly Beautiful Barn Conversion And Astonishing Artefacts. Â
Our Senior Architect, Dandi Passerini was thrilled to receive planning consent at the end of 2021 to convert an existing barn, occupying over 7 acres of delightful Essex land into two independent dwellings. Â
The current property offered the new homeowners an exciting opportunity to transform and extend the dwelling and create two stunning family homes.Â
Following thorough preparation, a beautiful design, and two pre-application meetings with the planning and conservation officers at Brentwood Borough Council, Dandi submitted a precise and detailed planning application.  Â
Comprehensive research and reporting were requested before the building could commence.Â
A conditional Archaeology study made the exciting discovery of rare pieces of medieval pottery on-site. These astonishing artefacts were carefully excavated by a team of professional Archaeologists and forwarded to a local museum for public display.   Â
Dandi’s meticulous attention to detail and her expertise in architectural design enabled the property to be split into two beautiful homes, with the exact area measurements in each home.  Â
We are incredibly excited to see this project completed and the client’s vision of co-living, separately coming to life. Â
