The Old Chapel is a converted chapel in the quiet village of Burtersett.

Burtersett is a peaceful hamlet with a thriving community of local people, active retirees and a small number of holiday cottages. Activities centre mainly around the village hall, which is also open for tea and cakes. There is a traditional annual village show. Burtersett also boasts a very popular working artist’s gallery, housed in the former pub. Burtersett is just 1.5 miles from Hawes, the ‘capital’ of the Dales, where all amenities and services are available including GP surgery, pharmacy, post office, library, museum, numerous independent shops, several pubs and restaurants – and of course the Creamery, home to Wensleydale cheese. Hawes is an easy half hour walk on quiet footpaths, or less than 5 minutes by car.

The chapel is an old Wesleyan Chapel, built in 1800's which was then converted around 2000. The property has more recently been fully further modernised to create a fabulous residential property. The Old Chapel offers all the original character features one would expect from a conversion, there are stained glass windows, exposed timbers and stonework and high ceilings throughout.

On the ground floor is a welcoming entrance hall with turned stair case and understairs utility area, double doors opening to a large, bright dining kitchen and a ground floor shower room. There is a great family room which is currently used as a bar and storage but could create a great secondary reception room, games room or even ancillary accommodation with its own side access.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms, all bright with feature timbers exposed and a modern family bathroom. To the rear is a fantastic first floor sitting room, making the most of the long distant views. A door leads on to a pleasant balcony with steps down to the rear garden.

Outside, to the front is a cottage style garden enclosed by wrought iron railings, a great place for potted plants. To the rear is a good size patio garden with raised beds. There are lovely views over open fields to the fells, a great place to enjoy afternoon and evening sunshine.

The Old Chapel is deceptively spacious and must be viewed to full appreciate the accommodation on offer. A great family, holiday or investment home.
