TYA Builds in Otley
Otley sits between Leeds and Ilkley in the Wharfe Valley. Its stone-built town centre and surrounding villages provide fascinating material for our architects, who are experienced in working sympathetically within this landscape.
Yorkshire's landscape is dotted with some of England's most characterful agricultural buildings — stone barns, threshing floors, and hay lofts that have stood for centuries. Converting a barn into a home requires an architect who understands both the planning system and the buildings themselves. TYA Builds has delivered barn conversions across the Dales, the Moors, and throughout West and South Yorkshire. We understand how to retain original features — stone walls, timber trusses, original openings — while creating homes that meet modern building standards.
