For many years Christmas carols would have been ringing out of this property at this time of year.

Originally a Wesleyan Chapel, constructed from Kentish ragstone in 1848, today it's a family home worth £1.25 million.

The four-bedroom detached house in Chapel Row, Ightham, near Sevenoaks, was converted from a chapel into a home in 2002.

There are plenty of reminders that the Grade II-listed building was once a place of worship, with its large south-facing windows which flood it with light, a double height lofted living area and stone steps up to the front door.

In the main living area there are three large, double-height, round-headed windows on both sides, while the space is divided into two sections – the kitchen, which was newly fitted in 2019, and dining area, and a raised living room.

There is a mezzanine area too while the northern end of the chapel has a bedroom/study with adjoining wet room and access to the south-facing landscaped garden with water feature.

It has a total of four bedrooms and two bathrooms, while outside there is plenty of parking space.

The property is up for sale with Knight Frank Agents in Sevenoaks.
