Yeah, we found East Devon to be more than reasonable to be honest. Definitely get on the good side of your planning officer though. I imagine your courtyard setting will make things quite straight-forward.

I think there are some time restrictions on the building still being used in an agricultural context, as the change was to provide more housing for farmworkers. You may have to re-instate the barn before applying.

Nice! Thoughts Sam?
Stealing just the kitchen worktop depth from the third square and introducing some storage space instead of larger WC/bathroom would get my vote. Work to the existing verticals and then make a feature of a vaulted roof (if possible)? In the short-term the kitchen worktop area could be office storage with the water already accessible behind?
Cooker and sink should switch (fire). Talk to East Devon about any M (wheelchair) requirements that they might now be applying. Unless you're non-notifiable?
Or could you put some sheep in there for an agricultural PD application? 😉

You could make one side a shower cubicle and then make the other side a toilet/basin? Not going down the 'room' route might make it easier to comply with building regs and gives you a bigger kitchen at the same time?
Then in the future perhaps add an en-suite? You have plenty of length, but not much width? But it's your space and definitely design it for the way you'll be using it. The coffee scenario sounds annoying!
-
I'd go with the second option and use your kitchen as a way of combining the two spaces (if possible)? Save some money on some of those doors too? Are you allowed to install glazing in the roof perhaps?
Can the craft room easily become a bedroom for your future bungalow scenario?
What's the orientation of your glazing? You may need to do some summer heat gain calculations?

Despite the bull run, the number of daily active BTC addresses only increased from ~700k to ~1m last year (ETH from ~200k to ~400k).

Have you already used the gov portal for flooding? It will give you a good idea of the build up of rain water and best location for drainage.
We did a similar thing in Devon and realised we had a much larger risk of flooding from a southern boundary, despite the obvious risk being water coming down a lane at the front. We moved drains around accordingly, etc.

I think the distinction from houses/watches/whatever is the price isn't kept artificially high, it's a constant boom/bust cycle with the ultimate aim of increasing your own market share?
Classic Gary.
