Renovating an old stable block

vet8

We have got planning permission to convert an old brick and stone stable block into a house. I have had plans drawn up, but my major worry is costing the whole thing.

I have spent hours looking at the internet and all I want is a rough "ball- park" type figure for the conversion. Is there somewhere which will give me a rough £ per square metre type of estimate?

I know it is difficult as the finish and specifications etc. change with each building, but there must be some general price for a conversion of this type.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.:j

Renovation is cheaper than new build but the ballpark figure banded about is 1000 per square metre for new. I think it's more like 1000 for renovating these days, especially as you have a lot of work to do it's not far off a new build to meet regs. That would be for a pretty standard spec - if you need special windows etc for conservation reasons then the price is going to go up.

We are converting 'stalls' - I call it a barn but you (used to!) be able to see the separate stalls where the animals were kept. We've converted the loft area as well so it will be 2100 square feet when finished. It's a challenge!
