Indeed barn conversions are often transformed into such timeless spaces that there can barely be said to be any trends in such design projects at all! However, the most popular requests for barn conversion jobs experienced by the Refresh Renovations team include large floor-to-ceiling windows, restored wooden beams as an architectural feature throughout and open-plan kitchen installation. All work just perfectly in barns with high ceilings and the opportunity to let in plenty of natural light. ## How much does a standard Barn Conversion cost? In order to provide an accurate quotation, Refresh Renovations offers a property visit to the cottage or barn ahead,creat any designs and floorplans that may be required, create a scope of works and get an independent estimate for the build costs. This allows us to scope out the job properly and work bespoke to your requirements. Generally speaking, you can expect the cost to come in at somewhere around £1,500- £3,000 per square metre of floorspace dependant on the specification of finish you require, and the level of structural work required. ## Why choose Refresh for my Barn Conversion or Cottage Renovation?

This is considered quite daunting for homeowners but Refresh take the worry right out of their hands: by working directly with the Local Planning Authority and managing the process from end-to-end through applications and appeals.
