We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Situated in a peaceful rural setting, Harewood Barns offers a great opportunity to buy and develop a fully permitted barn conversion project into a large dwelling with 4 ensuite bedrooms set within a plot of around 3.04 acres.
The site currently offers an attractive farmstead range of traditional red brick buildings positioned around a crew yard.

There would also be an open fronted car barn, approx. 33 sqm (355 sqft). From the A1133, take the signed exit towards Spalford.
Follow Sand Lane for approximately 600 metres and then bear right towards North Scarle.

DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT The proposed plans would create a stunning two storey single dwelling with gardens and paddock, with southerly views over farmland, providing about 334 sqm (3595 sqft) of internal accommodation.
There would also be an open fronted car barn, approx. 33 sqm (355 sqft). The architect's plans have been designed with the principal rooms around a central open courtyard.
The large open plan living room is set in the original main barn; this then leads into the hall and kitchen/dining room, and then onto the master bedroom en-suite and to bedroom four en-suite.
There are two further en-suite bedrooms on the first floor of the main barn. ACCESS Access to the barns will be along a new driveway from the existing gate on Rabbithill Lane.
PLANNING PERMISSION Full planning consent was granted on 5th January 2026 for the restoration and conversion of existing barns to a single dwelling on a site of around 0.98 acres.
The permission was granted under planning reference 25/00992/ FUL with Newark and Sherwood District Council, and key documents are available to view in the data room.
The consent states, it is the Council's view that community infrastructure levy is not payable on the development as there would be no increase in gross internal floor area.
BIODIVERSITY NET GAIN To fulfil the Biodiversity Net Gain requirement of the development the new owner will create and maintain a new environmental area in accordance with the post development habitat planting on the eastern side of the plot.
The Buyer will be obliged to fulfil the obligations of the unilateral undertaking related to the Biodiversity Net Gain requirements, dated 23rd December 2025.
The ecological appraisal dated 30th September 2025 is referred to within this agreement. Both documents can be viewed in the data room.
