Case Study

The owners of an MOT and Service Garage based in the Cotswolds approached us with the aspiration of converting the existing building into a private house. We undertook an appraisal of the relevant planning policies and advised the owners that despite being situated in the open countryside, the proposal would accord with the Council’s policy for the conversion of rural buildings.

Following the above advice, the owners instructed us to prepare a full planning application showing how the building could be successfully adapted and converted to residential use. The resultant scheme was submitted to the Council and granted full planning permission.
