A beautifully restored and modernised former Victorian chapel, with a wealth of original features, has come on the market.

The accommodation includes entrance hall, cloakroom/wc, spacious living room with vaulted ceiling, gallery, inner hall, study/bedroom four, luxury kitchen/dining room, utility room, three further bedrooms, two en suite shower rooms, family bathroom, double garage (current use as office), front and rear gardens.

The property, a detached former Victorian chapel built about 1890, was converted about 10 years ago into the present desirable and comfortable dwelling.

It was at that time considerably renovated and improved including, say the owners, being re-roofed, and has since been further modernised and improved in keeping with the original building, which retains many of its features.

These include some original doors, extensive timber panelling and exposed ceiling beams, particularly in the main reception and gallery area, and very attractive stonework to certain windows.

Beautiful full height stained glass and lead light windows have been retained on the upper front of the building. The present owners have made tremendous improvements themselves including tasteful updating of the three bathroom/shower rooms with splendid tiling, timber plank finish to certain floors.

The recent installation of a luxury fitted kitchen includes an excellent range of units complimented with granite work tops and certain stainless steel appliances.

The property is surrounded by countryside and the nearby golf course.
