Description

THE RESIDENCE

A rare piece of living history
Welcome to The Green — formerly the Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, this unique, characterful, and thoroughly modern three-bedroom semi-detached home represents a genuinely rare opportunity in the highly desirable village of Markfield.
 
Positioned at the top of The Green in a private, elevated setting, the property combines the architectural grandeur of its ecclesiastical origins with a contemporary interior of the highest standard. Floor-to-ceiling arched windows flood the space with light, while engineered wood and slate flooring ground the home with quiet elegance.
 
Offered to the market with no onward chain — a home for those who understand that true character cannot be replicated.
 
THE STORY
The open-plan ground floor is a statement of contemporary living — a fitted kitchen with breakfast bar, matching wall and base units, a wine cooler, and a generous living area, all framed by the chapel's magnificent characterful arched windows.
 
The first floor offers two substantial double bedrooms and a family bathroom of genuine quality — slate-floored, with shower over bath, LLWC, and wash-hand basin. High skirtings and architectural detailing honour the building's heritage throughout.
 
The entire second floor is given over to the master suite: a bedroom of fine proportions with its own en-suite shower room, accessed via a landing that commands remarkable views across the village of Markfield and towards Charnwood Forest beyond.
 
PROVENANCE
A building with 130 years of history (from our local research, please carry out your own verification if required).
 
1811
Original Chapel: The story of this site begins in 1811, when the first Wesleyan chapel was established on nearby Holywell Lane — one of the earliest expressions of Nonconformist faith in Markfield.
 
1894
The Present Building: A new and larger Wesleyan chapel was constructed facing The Green on Main Street, replacing the Holywell Lane structure. It is this stone-fronted building — with its distinctive facade and original date stones — that stands today and served the Wesleyan community for over six decades.
 
1960
End of Worship: In 1960, the local Wesleyan and Primitive Methodist congregations amalgamated to form what is now Trinity Methodist Church. The chapel on The Green passed out of religious use, closing a chapter of over 150 years of Methodist worship on this site.
 
2017
Sympathetic Conversion: Following a period of disuse, planning consent was granted in 2017 for a carefully considered residential conversion. As a key feature of the Markfield Conservation Area, the project was required to be fully sympathetic to local character. The building was sensitively divided into two semi-detached dwellings.
 
Today
Conservation Area: The property sits within the Markfield Conservation Area — a designation that protects the architectural integrity of the building and ensures its distinctive character endures, making this one of the most historically significant residential addresses in the village.
