Planning permission has been granted to turn the stables at Burderop House in Swindon into a luxury home. Property developer Arthur Dallimer is in the process of restoring the mansion at Burderop House to its former glory. He has now also been given permission to convert the house’s stable block into a luxury four-bed home.
The coach house and stable block is itself a Grade II-listed building in its own right, dating back to the early 18th century. There had already been permissions granted to convert it to three apartments and then 11 flats, but Mr Dallimer’s plan is now to make the building into just one single home. Plans show that the upper floor of the building could be converted to four bedrooms, three with en suite bathrooms, and with two of the bedrooms accessed from a different staircase and landing from the others.
On the ground floor will be a large living room and a smaller one, a utility room and kitchen with a large dining area attached. The application reads: “The new proposals present an alternative solution and are to convert the building into a single four-bedroom residence. Under this proposal, the previously proposed dormer windows are to be replaced with conservation rooflights to provide natural light into the first-floor accommodation.
“The car parking has been reduced from seven to three spaces to reflect the proposed change from three dwellings to a single dwelling. The sympathetic conversion of the stable block to a single residential dwellin.
