5 bed detached house for sale

Newchapel, Lingfield RH7

Guide Price £600,000 - £650,000. Newchapel Village Hall is certainly not for the faint-hearted - but for those seeking a unique project with huge potential, it could be something truly special. Set in the picturesque hamlet of Newchapel, surrounded by fields yet within easy reach of East Grinstead, Horley, and Gatwick, this impressive former village hall offers the chance to complete an exciting transformation into a stunning family home of approximately 2,500 sq ft.

Originally granted planning permission for conversion in 2018, the property has already undergone significant works. The ground floor features a magnificent 32ft x 30ft open-plan living space - the former hall - showcasing full-height windows, fireplaces, and partially vaulted ceilings, creating an incredible sense of volume and character. There is also a 20ft kitchen/dining room, utility room, family bathroom, and a further versatile room currently used as a bedroom but equally suitable as a study, playroom, or snug.

Upstairs, the property offers five bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms, including an impressive 22ft x 12ft principal suite with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom.

While much of the work has been completed, some elements remain outstanding, and the property does not currently have signed-off building regulations. This gives the incoming buyer the opportunity to finish the home to their own specification and taste.

Occupying a plot of approximately 0.25 acres, there is ample space for parking, gardens, and outbuildings, subject to clever landscaping. The property is currently serviced by a cesspit, which may benefit from future upgrading.

This is a property that will either excite or intimidate - and if it’s the former, it could be the perfect challenge. With vision, dedication, and some hard work, Newchapel Village Hall could become one of the area’s most extraordinary homes.
