Leigh Street, Leigh Upon Mendip

Ebenezer Chapel has undergone a sympathetic conversion and extension over the years creating a very fine three bedroom home combining period features with contemporary living. The front entrance opens into a lobby which has symmetrical stained glass windows and a chequerboard tiled floor. An internal door leads through to a spacious hallway which has lancet windows, stairs to the first floor and a passageway leading to the kitchen. This has exposed beams and has been fitted with solid wooden cabinetry, stone worktops, a double farmhouse style belfast sink, an integrated fridge freezer and a dishwasher. There is a lovely wide island providing a sociable division between the kitchen and dining area, where there is a comfortable space for a table and chairs. From here, steps lead up to a reception room which features large windows within a double height ceiling and continuing into the apex. Stairs wind down to a fabulous modern extension which has fully opening sliding doors along two walls embracing the south west facing garden. Floor to ceiling display shelves surround a central woodburning stove.

Returning to the original part of the chapel, there is a W/C with a shower and space for a washing machine and a tumble dryer. The third bedroom is opposite on the ground floor and is currently being used as a study/occasional guest bedroom. Upstairs in the main bedroom there are dual aspect windows and an internal wall of large windows overlooking one of the reception rooms which has a similar large window overlooking the countryside. There is a further double bedroom with a low level window with shutters plus a velux window and a bathroom with a bath, basin and W/C. The landing has views through the top of the lancet windows and an airing cupboard with built in shelves.

The garden is secluded with mature trees, a variety of climbing plants and shrubs, including hydrangeas and roses and low maintenance gravel and terraces for outdoor seating. There is a large studio building with light and power and side access to the front of the property where there is a parking space for one vehicle and an adjoining stone built store.

The village has a public house, a Church and a first School. There are many lovely footpaths to enjoy the surrounding countryside. The neighbouring village of Coleford is within half a mile and has a doctors surgery, a pharmacy and a convenience store. Located approximately 14 miles from Bath and 7 miles from Frome, both of which have railway stations making Leigh on Mendip the ideal place to enjoy village life whilst being within easy commuting distance of the surrounding towns and cities. The village is on the doorstep of many exciting venues including the exclusive Babington House which is located just over three miles away.
