Description
THE OLD CHAPEL is a truly fabulous detached former chapel that has been sympathetically converted into a substantial five double bedroom family home built of local stone under a slate tiled roof.
The current owners have owned the property for 18 years and in that time have loved, improved and extended the chapel creating a unique character filled home that extends to over 3500sq ft of living space.
The versatile accommodation comprises five double bedrooms, five en-suites, three reception rooms, a kitchen breakfast room, cloakroom and utility room. Further benefits include stunning countryside views, off road parking for three vehicles, a good sized private rear garden and no onward chain.
The property is presented in good order throughout but still offers a potential buyer the opportunity to cosmetically improve if desired.
