Property description

Hallelujah!And now for something completely different...........this is the Marmite property, the wild card, the one that you're gonna love or hate, with no middle ground!Interested?.....Read on..............This former Methodist chapel was built over 100 years ago and was commissioned by local farmers who each threw some money in and built, largely, what we see today. It was de-commissioned in the late 1990's and for those with a morbid curiosity, no, it was never used for burial; in fact, the only spirits are the ones that have been consumed on the premises since its closure!!Now the serious bit.....Around 2011, the current owners re-built the interior and converted the structure into residential living accommodation. The original heavy entrance door (approached from the Gothic style porch) remains and leads into what is now the entrance hall and double doors then lead into the open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining room. This really is quite stunning, as the original stained-glass windows feature heavily, along with the vaulted ceiling and mezzanine level which has now been created over the lounge. This, combined with a contemporary granite kitchen (with lower, well-lit ceiling) manages to sympathetically merge the old with the new - yes, it actually works well and it is quite breath-taking. Also downstairs are two bedrooms, a separate WC, a contemporary bathroom and a utility. Interestingly, another reception room, in the form of a sitting room/study is located on the upper floor. From here, there is access to a third (double) bedroom. Outside, the wide gravel driveway provides off-road parking for at least 6 cars and there are enclosed formal gardens to the front and side of the property.Another great thing is, that although it is located 'in the sticks' with beautiful surrounding countryside, there are nearby properties, so it does not feel isolated. Speedy road links provide travel into nearby Wem and Whitchurch and there is a local railway station at nearby Prees, together with those at Wem and Whitchurch.So, there you have it, a well presented chapel conversion with heaps of original character and Gothic-style features, brought well and truly into the 21st Century. If you fancy something that bit different, then this could be the home for you, or alternatively you could just play safe and buy that boring modern box on a housing estate.....the choice is yours......
