About this property

    Dating back to 1836, formerly a Wesleyan Chapel, this property has been reimagined and redesigned as a fabulous four-bedroom family home. The accommodation is principally on one level with a lower ground floor offering three further rooms, albeit only with external access at present, offering excellent potential for one's own requirements, subject to any permissions or consents. The interior has a wonderful high ceiling presented to a very high standard with a neutral colour scheme. It maximises natural lighting with large windows taking in long distance views from its elevated position. The accommodation comprises an entrance hallway, superb open-plan living/dining kitchen, which certainly has the wow factor, with integrated Neff appliances, utility with space for further appliances, master bedroom with luxurious en suite shower room, three further bedrooms and house bathroom. As mentioned, the lower ground floor comprises three rooms, all with radiators, uPVC windows. The property has a gas-fired central heating system and uPVC double-glazing. Externally, there are perimeter low-level walled gardens, predominantly designed for ease of maintenance with gravelled areas. Steps lead down to the lower ground floor accommodation. There is an extensive, tarmacked parking area, which could be partly converted to extra garden or garaging, subject to necessary permissions or consents.

    Entrance Hallway

    Double uPVC doors with opaque glazing give access to the entrance hallway, which has a wonderful high ceiling, neutral decor, ceiling downlighting and a radiator. This is a most impressive entrance to the property. It continues around in an L-shaped manor and has a large uPVC double-glazed window. A sturdy oak door leads into the open-plan living/dining kitchen.

    Living/Dining Kitchen

    This room certainly has the wow factor and is best demonstrated by a combination of the photography and floor plan. It has a high ceiling, neutral decor and large uPVC double-glazed windows to three elevations, flooding it with an abundance of natural light. The living area has long distance views looking back towards the National Park and Castle Hill in the distance. It has grey carpeting, a log effect electric fire and large stylish radiators. The kitchen and dining areas have grey laminate flooring and plenty of space for a formal dining table. The kitchen area is certainly the heart of the home with a large central island unit with Quartz worktops extending to create a substantial breakfasting area, beneath which is extensive storage within soft-close drawers. The island incorporates a Neff ceramic hob, with a filter hood in a contrasting colour. There is extensive storage within wall and base units on either side, with matching Quartz worktops and upstands, and a one-and-a-half bowl sink with a single drainer and adjoining grooved draining area. There are side-by-side Neff fan ovens, one of which incorporates a warming drawer, a side-by-side fridge and freezer, Neff dishwasher and a wine rack and cooler. The utility has space for further appliances. Above the island unit, there is a stylish light fitting, along with ceiling downlighting throughout this large, impressive open-plan room. An oak door leads into the utility.
