Derelict Barn, Hereford

I haven't really posted this property because I think its a particularly good deal or an interesting find. I just wanted to share what I think is an amazing feat of construction. I have no idea what is holding this barn up, perhaps magic or just simply hope, but it looks like a sneeze could send it toppling over. No bother though, as the site has planning permission for the whole thing to be knocked down and a 2-bed house to be erected in its place. The current permissions don't have much room for creativity, as the planning in place is fairly detailed.

With the option of purchasing additional grounds, the final build could be lovely, if a bit on the small side to start with. The land, and barn, are up for a rather large £100,000 with the adjoining 1.25 acres of land being an extra £15,000.

Derelict barn, Gloucestershire

There is something very whimsical about this next property. Situated near the Forest of Dean, this piece of land - the size not stated - hosts a derelict barn, now completely overgrown by nature. 

The property has planning permission to be converted into a holiday home and would be ideal to let out for those wanting to explore the beautiful, local countryside or perhaps as an artist's/author's retreat. 

For what it is (that's assuming there is no land), its quite pricey. Valued at £69,000, it has no doubt been pushed up in price by the acquisition of planning permission. Nevertheless, its a quaint little plot with definite charm.
