You And Your Flock Will Adore This Unique 19th Century Home. If you’re looking for something special for you and your congregation, no other three bedroom detached will hold a candle to this superb converted chapel. Property ref: KD0516
Dating back to 1889, this former Methodist chapel has been tastefully transformed to combine the very best of old and new.
Even before stepping inside you can sense that it’s something a bit special.
You climb up half a dozen steps to reach the front door - a wooden door housed in a stunning gothic arch. See this and you’ll never be able to settle for white uPVC again…
This stunning conversion retains many gorgeous original features, including the double height vaulted ceilings with exposed beams in the lounge.
The versatile ground floor is setup so everyone can easily spend time together. But there’s also plenty of quirky nooks & crannies to give everyone their own space.
There’s a spacious dining room with a beautiful oak staircase with a glass balustrade leading up to the first floor bedrooms and bathroom.
The kitchen / diner has plenty of storage space in the timeless shaker style fitted units and even space for a small dining table and chairs - perfect for grabbing a quick bite on the go.
The lounge is light, bright and airy, thanks to the double height ceiling and French doors which lead to the private cottage garden.
It’s a lovely space to relax, with an extra private mezzanine accessed by another oak staircase with glass balustrades. This will make a perfect home office if you work from home or just a quiet place to sit and relax with a good book.
The three bedrooms are all a good size and there’s a luxurious family bathroom also on the first floor.
There is no off street parking but there should be no issue parking on the road or the garage.
The property does have a private, well maintained cottage garden, with a patio seating area, a small lawn and mature borders.
Great Corby is a quiet, friendly village but it’s less than 10 minutes drive to the M6 and less than 20 to the centre of Carlisle.
Chances are you may not need to head too far every day, as the village has a friendly local pub and a primary school that’s rated “Good” by Ofsted.
The nearby village of Wetheral is only a short walk or a 10 minute drive away.
There’s another couple of pubs, cafés and restaurants, along with a post office/village shop and a station with direct trains to Carlisle.
This versatile property could be a quirky left field choice for a young family looking to enjoy quiet village life, or it could be equally attractive to a couple.
