Vernacular Homes launches new property development service

  • Vernacular Homes - New Property Development Service

We’re pleased to announce we have added a new service to partner with landowners looking to develop existing property or build new.

An unused outbuilding or vacant land can hold a huge amount of development potential for a new home or commercial building.

Here are some important points to consider:

  1. Planning restrictions –thorough understanding of local restrictions is essential; the local planning authority can be very supportive of certain types of development.

  2. Protected areas – plots or buildings in a National Landscape (Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty) could be restricted in terms of what can be built in order to conserve the local environment.

  3. Design ideas – do the plans make the most of the space and light? Will they appeal to potential buyers or users and give the maximum return on investment? An experienced eye can come up with suggestions you may not have envisaged.

  4. Conservation – if you are planning to convert a traditional building such as a barn or oast house, it’s vital to work with an expert to meet any conservation, nature, or listed building requirements and preserve character. 

  5. Utilities – access to water, electricity, drainage and broadband is a key concern, especially in rural areas.

The team at Vernacular Homes offers a comprehensive service for landowners and developers, taking care of the project from start to finish – full design, planning and build, anticipating any challenges. 

Take a look at some of the landowner and developer projects we’ve worked on.
