Description

Offered at auction, this five-bedroom stone and brick barn conversion on the outskirts of Witney is presented as a nearly completed project, with no onward chain. The property extends to approximately 1,825 sq ft over three floors and occupies a plot of around one acre. The listing describes the main structural and first-fix work as largely complete, while noting scope for a buyer to finish the remaining work to their own specification. The ground floor is arranged around an open-plan kitchen and living area, with a utility room and access to a patio. The first floor has a principal bedroom with an en-suite shower room, two further bedrooms and two additional bathrooms. Two more bedrooms and a bathroom occupy the vaulted second-floor eaves. The listing highlights a fitted kitchen with shaker-style cabinetry, oak worktops and stone flooring, alongside several completed bathrooms. The property is described as entirely off-grid, with an installed solar array and an EPC rating of B. Its rural setting, substantial plot and unfinished-project status are central features. The sale is through a transparent online auction process; prospective bidders should review the legal pack and auction terms, including the stated deposit and reservation fee.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

Hill Farm Barn has plenty of character and a substantial canvas: a converted stone barn on around an acre, with the structural and first-fix work described as largely complete. The photographed living spaces, kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms look clean and substantially finished, while the patio, lawn and off-grid solar setup add to its appeal. The remaining scope is not clearly itemised, so a buyer should establish exactly what is left to complete.

The price is the weaker part of the opportunity: at £425 per sq ft, the asking price is about 6% above the local average, and the purchase plus the stated refurbishment midpoint looks tight against local benchmarks. The works budget is light at £5,000–£15,000, but this is a project where the finish and any remaining costs need checking carefully before committing.

Key opportunities

  • Complete the remaining, currently unspecified project work and tailor the finish to your own specification.
  • Make the most of the barn’s exposed brick, weatherboard detailing and vaulted upper-floor character.
  • Enjoy the one-acre setting, patio and installed solar array without an obvious major exterior repair showing in the available views.

Key risks

  • The remaining work is not identified or quantified in the listing, so verify its scope and budget before proceeding.
