The planning permits the creation of a single dwelling with a Gross Internal Floor Area of 227 sq.m/2443 sq.ft which comprises interconnecting two sections, one two storey height and a single storey wing with kitchen and master bedroom. The layout includes a large Living Room with high vaulted roof, a fashionable Kitchen/Family Room with separate Boot Room/Utility plus WC/Cloakroom, whilst there are two generous bedrooms, both with full en suites on the ground floor and a further en suite bedroom within a mezzanine level above the living area. The property will have full length/width glazed windows overlooking the front garden to the south with numerous other windows and rooflights making it a light and airy home.
The proposed property has a large courtyard style garden with gated entrance, opposite which is a further barn providing opportunities for garaging, storage or perhaps even a home office. In addition there is a good sized paddock and the whole extends to an approximate area of 0.74 acres.

Situated down a no through lane and occupying a delightful location beside the picturesque church, the property is located within the rural village of Lower Seagry, about 5 miles south of Malmesbury and approximately 3 miles north-east of the M4 (Junction 17). Along with the neighbouring village of Upper Seagry, the two adjoining villages have a good number of amenities, including a sought after primary school, a good local public house with good food, a cricket club and village hall.
