Property description

Former detached chapel which was converted to create this CHARMING three bedroom home, maintaining CHARACTER FEATURES combined with modern day living. Away from the main house is a TWO BEDROOM DETACHED LODGE which has permission to be used as a dwelling and is currently providing a good rental income with its own parking and garden. There is also a further detached lodge which is currently being used by the owner for a dog grooming business (Note: This business could be sold separately as a going concern) or would be suitable for many other uses. Nestled in a semi-rural location yet very accessible by road in an elevated position within mature grounds of approximately one acre, offering views over a wooded valley. Further accommodation could be created from the conversion of the double garage and linking it into the main dwelling (Note: Planning permission was granted, but has since lapsed). This unique property offers many different options, including income potential and working from home. Must be viewed to fully appreciate the location and what is available.
