'The Old Methodist Chapel' was constructed circa 1840 and was subsequently remodelled and extended in 1986 into a residential dwelling.
Commanding a slightly elevated position within the village centre, approach to the home is on to a hard-standing driveway with parking for two vehicles. Steps lead up to a pathway where the main entrance is to the side, whilst there is also gated side access to the rear. Internally a welcoming and attractive entrance hall has a staircase leading to the first-floor accommodation with a useful built in storage cupboard. An internal door leads into the impressive, refitted kitchen/diner. Laid with a sandstone tiled flooring, there are stylish, fitted units with granite worktops, butler sink and five ring gas range oven with additional heat plate. There is an integrated stainless steel extractor hood, in addition to space for a free-standing washing machine. An opening leads through to the dining area which has a feature exposed brick wall, continuation of the flooring and French doors onto a patio to the rear. A sizeable living room sits to the front of the property and is accessed via the entrance hall and timber glazed French doors. This room also has exposed brickwork, a feature fireplace with inset dual fuel wood-burning stove and views to the front.
A galleried landing gives way to access all three bedrooms on this level, all of which are of double proportions, the master bedroom has built in storage and the convenience of its own en-suite which comprises of a shower enclosure, low level wc and wash hand basin. Smart white tiles have been added to the walls and an obscure window floods the room with an abundance of natural daylight. The remaining bedrooms are of good proportions with beautiful views over the rear garden beyond and are serviced by a family bathroom. This incorporates a free-standing roll top bath, low level wc and wash hand basin. The look is contemporised further with modern tiling, and a chrome heated towel rail.
The outside space is partly walled and is tiered on three levels. A patio has steps up to a further seating area with log store and various seating options. Additional steps lead up to a lawned area where there are some mature shrubs and plants and an apple tree, all of which give an element of privacy. The garden backs on to privately owned land to the rear.
