4 bedroom detached house for sale

The current owners have created a versatile and functional home, with over 2,200 sq ft of living accommodation neatly set out. The property blends period architecture, standout features and contemporary finishes sympathetically throughout to create a special home.

The Old Chapel is entered by a striking arched front door and you are first met by a practical entrance hall, which is perfect for storing boots and coats after a walk in the nearby countryside. The entrance hall leads onto the kitchen and dining room, which is open-plan and has a vaulted ceiling to create impressive volume, alongside large arched windows which look out to the front of the property, there is also a circular stained-glass window higher up – a notable feature of the former chapel. The high level of craftsmanship is evident with beautiful tiling and a country style kitchen, complete with a breakfast bar.

The ground floor hallway leads on from the kitchen to two bedrooms, a shower room and a bathroom. From here, there is a sitting room, which is an expansive and versatile space, with one section of it benefitting from a large glass skylight- a standout feature added by the current owners. The sitting room also borders a secondary entrance to the property. Within the sitting room you will find exposed brick features and a wood burning stove.

Beyond the sitting room there is a further bedroom, which has impressive crittal windows and doors, framing a delightful view of the grounds and its own en suite shower room, complete with a sauna. On the first floor is the impressive principal bedroom, which is configured in a semi open plan style with an indulgent freestanding rolltop bath- a real focal point alongside the vaulted ceilings.

Gardens & Grounds:
Directly to the front of the property is a conveniently positioned parking area. The grounds are set behind attractive railings to the front, with a gate for access. The Old Chapel is believed to date back to 1836, and a section of the garden remains as a graveyard today, in-keeping with the history of the site. The rear section of the grounds has a very private feel with plenty of space for seating and a lovely patio area. The Old Chapel also benefits from a detached double garage, with electric doors and loft space. Loft space is also found in the main house.
