The Property
Positioned at the heart of the village of Wall, overlooking the green and surrounded by glorious Northumberland countryside, this handsome Grade II Listed former Methodist Chapel presents a rare and versatile opportunity. Dating from 1868 and built in traditional stone and slate, the building offers elegantly proportioned, characterful spaces that have been beautifully maintained and is ideally suited to a variety of commercial uses or, subject to the necessary consents, an inspiring canvas for residential conversion.
The Chapel has undergone thoughtful refurbishment, including an electrical re-wire, with historic elements carefully conserved throughout. Internally, its layout offers a natural flow and flexibility, with soaring ceilings and abundant natural light. An entrance lobby leads into the first of two generous office spaces, known as The Chapel, which retains the building’s original sense of scale and presence features a striking open-plan space framed by arched sash windows.
Double doors connect through to The Studio — a further large, light-filled room that would lend itself equally to workspace, gallery use, studio, or reception space. This room also opens into a kitchenette, where integrated bench seating is paired with modern fittings, including a dishwasher, under-counter fridge, portable induction hob, smart oven, and electric hot water tap.
To one side, ancillary facilities include two well-appointed WC cubicles and a washbasin, with plumbing and wiring in place for an electric shower if required.
Externally
The Chapel occupies a prominent position within the village, set behind decorative iron railings with a small, enclosed frontage overlooking the green. A pathway to the south side leads to the main entrance, while a further narrow strip of land to the north side provides additional external amenity space
Agents Note
The property is currently classified as ‘Offices and Premises’ for business rates purposes.
Preliminary plans have been prepared by the current owner for conversion to a single-storey residential dwelling, though no formal application has yet been submitted.
Local Information
