Description
Built from local stone in circa 1824 as a Baptist chapel, this attractive period building was converted into a 4-bedroom, 1-bathroom family home and is now a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home. All the bedrooms and bathrooms are on the first floor, and on the ground floor is an open-plan kitchen/dining and living room where the double-aspect living area benefits from 2 pairs of French doors and a fireplace, and the kitchen/dining area also receives plenty of natural light from a pair of raised sash windows. Leading from the kitchen area is a study, which is another double-aspect room with a vaulted ceiling, plus a utility room and a W/C.
The building is set back from and end on to the road where a wide gated entrance between a low stone wall and tall hedges provides access into a sizeable, gravelled parking area sufficient to accommodate several vehicles. A pedestrian gate leads through to the principal garden which is in the foreground of the main elevation and is also nicely screened with tall hedges. At the rear is an enclosed patio with three sets of French doors leading into the living area and the study.
