Yokehouse Lane Barn, Painswick, Stroud

Planning permission received for the residential conversion and extension to a historic barn, located near Painswick. The Barn was historically a cottage which was later adapted into a Barn, with notable remaining features including a bread oven. We worked collaboratively with the Local Authority to develop the design, exploring design options with a Pre-Application prior to making a formal planning application.

The proposal will provide an exciting double height living space, which connects to a new extension. The extension combines timber and stone cladding, with a green sedum roof and zinc, bringing together traditional construction with contemporary design. In this way the extension complements and enhances the barns original features.

The Barn will be thermally insulated throughout to provide a comfortable and modern family home. The extension was developed to suit its orientation and setting with large areas of north facing glazing, providing a dynamic light filled living space. The Barn will also have large elegant glazed doors, opening the Barn to its picturesque rural setting.
