About this property

A Truly Exceptional Grade II Listed Former Church, Transformed into a Remarkable Home

Offering an extraordinary blend of historic grandeur, architectural character and contemporary living, this magnificent Grade II listed former church has been thoughtfully transformed into a truly unique residential property. Dating back to the Victorian era, this remarkable building retains the striking presence and impressive proportions of its ecclesiastical origins, while providing approximately 5,970 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged across multiple floors.

From the outside, the property makes an unforgettable impression. The impressive stone-built tower, Gothic architectural detailing, traditional arched windows and distinctive roofline create a commanding presence, complemented by the surrounding views and established setting. The tower has been repointed, with partial repointing also carried out to the side elevation, helping to preserve the appearance and integrity of this historic building.

Inside, the sheer scale and versatility of the accommodation set this property apart. The ground floor centres around an exceptionally spacious living room, providing an impressive setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The generous proportions create a wonderful sense of openness, while the building's original architectural character provides a distinctive backdrop rarely found in conventional homes.

The kitchen offers extensive space for cooking and day-to-day living, complemented by a separate dining room, creating a practical yet sociable arrangement. A utility room and additional storage areas further enhance the functionality of the accommodation, while a welcoming entrance hall provides access into the main living spaces.

The first floor continues to impress, with four double bedrooms arranged around a striking gallery landing overlooking the space below. This dramatic architectural feature reinforces the building's original grandeur and creates a wonderful sense of height and openness. The bedrooms provide flexible accommodation for family members and guests, with an en-suite bathroom and additional bathroom facilities serving the sleeping accommodation.

Further enhancing the property's appeal is a substantial dedicated entertainment room, offering an ideal setting for a private cinema, games room or leisure space. With the scale of the building and its flexible arrangement, there is considerable opportunity to create distinct areas for relaxation, entertaining and working from home.

The upper floors provide additional useful rooms, including a cloakroom and an electrical room, together with access to a roof terrace. This elevated outdoor space offers a further dimension to the property, creating an opportunity to enjoy the surroundings away from the main living areas.

Despite its historic origins, the property has benefited from a number of important improvements. A new heating system has been installed, alongside insulation to the floors and walls, helping to improve comfort and thermal performance. The tower has also been repointed, with further repointing undertaken to part of the side elevation.

As a Grade II listed building, this is a property of architectural and historic significance, offering a rare opportunity to own a distinctive piece of local heritage. Its conversion into a substantial private residence creates an unusual combination of period character, impressive scale and modern residential functionality. Any future alterations will need to respect the building's listed status, with relevant permissions required where applicable.

With approximately 5,970 sq. ft. of accommodation, four double bedrooms, extensive living space, a dedicated entertainment room, multiple ancillary rooms and a roof terrace, this remarkable former church offers a lifestyle unlike almost any other property on the market.

Whether appealing to buyers seeking an extraordinary family home, a distinctive entertaining space or a character property with a fascinating history, this is a truly individual residence that must be experienced to be fully appreciated.

A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional Grade II listed former church, combining historic architectural grandeur with substantial living space and contemporary comforts. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
