Welcome to The Chancel, a truly extraordinary dwelling set within a breath taking chapel conversion in Parc Pen Y Fal—one of Abergavenny’s most prestigious developments. One of just six individually designed residences created within this Grade II-listed landmark, this home blends historic grandeur with modern luxury.
From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by an open-plan, light-filled living space, where the original church flooring and intricately carved pulpit create a spectacular centrepiece. The soaring ceilings and architectural detailing make this an unforgettable entertaining space—full of character, history, and conversation starters. On the ground floor, a versatile third bedroom—currently used as an office—boasts beautiful curved architecture and a wooden ceiling, adding warmth and uniqueness. Whether as a home workspace, snug, or guest room, it’s a space that invites creativity and comfort. You will also find a ground floor shower room, ideal for guests plus a utility room and storeroom.
Moving up to the first floor, the sleek, modern kitchen seamlessly blends elegance with functionality, offering ample storage and premium appliances to make everyday cooking effortless. Adjacent to the kitchen is a mezzanine-style living area, a truly special space overlooking the grand stone-tiled floor below. With glass balustrades allowing light to flood in and framing the stunning gothic stained-glass windows, this area is rich in both history and versatility. The second floor is home to two beautifully restored double bedrooms, each featuring an en-suite bathroom or shower room and exposed roof trusses, adding depth and charm to these elegant spaces. The contemporary en-suites complement the period features with crisp white and black finishes, creating a stylish yet serene retreat.
The Chancel comes with its own private outdoor garden, providing a spacious tranquil outdoor space—perfect for morning coffee, alfresco dining, or simply unwinding in the fresh air. Off-road parking is also included, ensuring convenience and ease—an essential benefit in such a sought-after location.
Set against the backdrop of the Brecon Beacons, this home enjoys a perfect balance of peace and accessibility. Abergavenny, famed as a traditional Welsh market town, offers independent shops, award-winning restaurants, and fantastic transport links—all just a short stroll away. Originally built in the late 19th century, Pen Y Fal Chapel was designed to serve the patients and staff of the nearby hospital. With its bull-nosed red sandstone façade, soaring slate roof, and striking octagonal steeple, it remains a masterpiece of Victorian architecture. Inside, the conversion has preserved its most iconic features, including arched stained-glass windows, hewn stonework, and an awe-inspiring vaulted wooden ceiling.
This is more than just a home—it’s a chance to own a one-of-a-kind piece of history, thoughtfully reimagined for modern, stylish living.

Before requesting a viewing, we encourage you to explore all the marketing materials we’ve provided. Take a good look the photos, floorplan, video, map and any land plans provided. If possible, we also suggest driving by the property or using Google Street View to get a feel for the area and check if it’s the right spot for you.

Just let us know if that works better for you!
Property Information
All measurements, floorplans, and land plans are there to give you a rough idea, and are approximate. While we’ve done our best to make sure everything is accurate, we recommend double-checking the details with your solicitor. We haven’t tested any of the services or appliances, so we can’t guarantee they’re in working order. The photos are for marketing purposes, so please don’t assume that everything you see is included with the property. Some fixtures and fittings may also be available by separate negotiation. We’re committed to ensuring you have all the info you need to make an informed decision when buying a property.

From time to time, we might recommend third-party services like mortgages, legal advice, or surveys. In most cases, we don’t get any financial incentives for doing this, but there may be a few instances where we do. Rest assured, anyone using a recommended provider won’t receive preferential treatment and it won't affect their position or priority over other interested parties. Their choice is always their own.
