The Property
Dating back to the 1800’s, The Chapel was converted to provide spacious accommodation with many interesting details. The main entrance currently opens into the entrance hallway with space for the storage of cloaks and boots. To the right hand side, there is a ground floor WC and wash hand basin, featuring a chrome heated towel rail and half wall panelling.
The main living area spans the depth of the building and benefits from a dual aspect to the front and rear elevations, flooding the room with natural light throughout the day. The focal point is the newly fitted multi-fuel stove housed within a stone effect chimney breast with a wooden mantel over and traditional wooden pillars, while there are a range of fitted, bespoke hardwood cabinets providing shelving and storage.
The kitchen lies to the northern elevation and is fitted with a bespoke solid oak kitchen, hand crafted by a local joiner. Topped with hardwood worktops, there is a Belfast sink inset while integral appliances include a Rangemaster cooker, under counter fridge and washing machine. The kitchen is again flooded with natural light with views overlooking the delightful gardens. There is also a useful under stair storage cupboard accessed from the kitchen.
Stairs rise to a landing where the character of the building continues and timber beams are exposed. Cottage style doors open into the accommodation at first floor. A spacious master bedroom, having good head height and room for freestanding furniture has two Velux windows which take advantage of the stunning views and location. The master bedroom is fitted with bespoke, solid oak wardrobes and eaves storage.
The second bedroom is set within the eaves with a T-fall roof and benefits from a Velux skylight and window to the eastern elevation. A good sized single, this room could be utilised for a number of purposes including a nursery or home office. The shower room completes the accommodation, fitted with a WC, a wash hand basin and a shower cubicle.
The garden is spacious and is largely laid to lawn surrounded by a traditional stone wall. Flower bed borders are well stocked and various trees including fruiting apples and a pear intersperse the lawn and provide shelter and a good crop of fruit.
A patio is laid to the western elevation and takes in views over the neighbouring countryside towards the river which can be faintly heard in the distance and the open aspect means sunsets are regularly enjoyed.
A stone built bothy/outhouse is detached from the dwelling and completes the garden and is a good storage room which has a range of uses such as a workshop, potting shed or studio benefitting from a window overlooking the adjoining countryside making the space beautifully light.
