Features and description
- Tenure: Freehold
A rare opportunity to acquire a former Methodist Chapel with planning permission for conversion into a 2-bedroom residential dwelling, located in the desirable village of Damerham.
Dating from 1877, a former Methodist Chapel close to the centre of the sought-after Downland community of Damerham with planning permission for conversion into a 2-bedroom residential dwelling with a small enclosed rear garden, two nearby off road parking spaces (in Penny Black opposite). The planning permission makes provision for a kitchen, dining room and living room with 2-double bedrooms and a galleried landing that capitalises upon the impressive ceiling height of the current structure, and could suit those looking for a full-time home in a peaceful village environment or, equally, those seeking a private or commercial holiday home.
PLANNING
Application No. 24/10529 granted conditional planning permission for the change of use of existing building to a dwelling. Two parking spaces to be conveyed with The Chapel in Penny Black opposite, beneath one of the spaces will be the site for the new sewerage treatment plant. A full copy of the planning permission and related documents and plans can be viewed online at quoting the planning application number above.
The following relevant, decided planning applications are also available to view on the NFDC Planning portal:
Ref. No: 24/10529
Ref. No: 23/10615
AGENTS NOTE
The drainage (treatment plant) for The Chapel will be required to be located to the front left hand corner of Penny Black opposite as per the approved planning permission. We understand from the current owner that they are willing to discuss this in greater detail by pre arranged appointment the finer details of the drainage layout and phospahate credits that could be available, with any interested party.
The Chapel is located close to the centre of the picturesque Hampshire village of Damerham in countryside designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village provides a reputable Primary School (Western Downland), a Village Hall, Church and Public House, whilst the near-by Avonside town of Fordingbridge (about 3 miles) caters for most everyday needs, including a range of shops, well respected Primary and Secondary schooling and sporting facilities.
Communications in the area are good, with the regional centres of Salisbury, Bournemouth, Poole and Southampton all within convenient driving distance. All can provide mainline rail links to London Waterloo and there are international airports at Bournemouth and Southampton. The village is well placed for those wishing to enjoy the area on foot,wheel or in the saddle; a number of bridleways and footpaths exist in and around Damerham itself, whilst the New Forest National Park, with its thousands of acres of walking and riding countryside, lies about 5 miles to the East.
Two allocated parking spaces will be conveyed for the Chapel in Penny Black opposite.
Small garden area can be created to the rear, to provide outside space.
New Forest District Council. TBC.
Mains electricity.
Leave Fordingbridge in the signposted direction of Sandleheath/Damerham. Pass through Sandleheath and follow Court Hill down into Damerham. Navigate the steep left hand bend and pass the Compasses Inn before turning second right into the High Street. The chapel will be located after a short distance on the left hand side.
