Description

An interesting and deceptively spacious former Methodist Chapel with stunning living and dining room with original vaulted ceiling, kitchen, three/four bedrooms, two bathrooms, off-road parking for three vehicles and courtyard style gardens. The accommodation has been lovingly maintained by the current owners which has been greatly improved with the introduction of an air source heat pump used for central heating, double glazing throughout and an EV car charging point, making this a superb period conversion which has been tastefully blended with 21st century refinements. We envisage this would suit as a main residence, holiday let or second home. Certainly a property that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Accommodation

An entrance porch with tiled flooring and space for coats, boots etc leads into the original part of the chapel used as the living and dining room and still retains many of the original features with the vaulted gothic style ceiling, ornate wooden panelling and cathedral-shaped double glazed windows. There is also a feature stone fireplace with an inset wood burner. A wonderful open plan space, perfect for entertaining. From here a door leads into the inner hallway with access to two ground floor bedrooms and the kitchen which includes a good range of bespoke fitted units, separate laundry/utility room and bathroom.

On the first floor is the light and spacious principal bedroom with high ceilings, exposed beams large Velux window and ensuite bathroom. There is also an additional fourth bedroom which could be used as an office, guest room or dressing room for the principal bedroom.
