Hallbankgate, Brampton

A unique opportunity!  The Chapel at Hallbankgate is believed to date back to around 1817 and used as a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel until around 1980. It sits in the heart of the popular village of Hallbankgate, close to the market town of Brampton and excellent transport links to A69.  This unique historic building has been used over the years as a residential home and was used as an art studio.

** Viewing Strictly by appointment only **

Internally the original chapel space on the ground floor has previously been used as an art studio and with minor renovation would make an incredible open plan lounge area for a family home.
Most recently used as a family home, the accommodation is configured with lounge, dining kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room on the ground floor. On the first floor, there is an additional lounge/dining/kitchenette, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.  There is further storage space on the second floor.

The bustling market town of Brampton is only two miles away which has a large array of amenities and access to the A69 towards Newcastle.  The City of Carlisle is only a short drive away with city amenities and excellent links to the M6 and West Coast Mainline for travel North and South.
