Grade II listed former chapel, with stunning views and a large garden, cleverly crafted to create an elegant home.
Characterful and quirky, this Grade II listed former Chapel has been cleverly and beautifully designed to create a welcoming home.
Approached into a porch with room for coats and shoes, and into the kitchen with its flagstone flooring and welcoming AGA is a wonderful way to begin your tour. Plenty of room for a large table this could easily be exchanged for an island unit instead.
At the back of the house is a sun room which captures the last of the sun with double doors ready to throw open into the garden. The main body of the chapel has been crafted to create separate rooms, an elegant sitting room with a wood burning stove, an office hidden behind pews and a double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and a downstairs shower room.
A curved stair case leads into a raised mezzanine, currently filled with pews but, with listed building consent, it may be possible to turn this into a bedroom.
Below the sitting room is a wine cellar and plenty of storage, accessed by doors from the dining part.
On the other side of the kitchen is an annexe, which is currently used for Airbnb, this consists of a separate entrance approached around the side of the building, a large airing cupboard, utility/kitchen and downstairs shower room. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms.
Outside there is parking for several cars on the gravelled driveway, and a pretty cottage garden to the front. The rear garden is larger than expected, mainly laid to lawn with fruit trees and mature borders. A summer house houses a sauna and cover for a hot tub, whilst at the far end of the garden overlooking fields there is a covered breeze house to enjoy the last of the evening views, these items are subject to negotiation.
Christian Malford is one of the few villages in the area retaining the facilities and amenities villages used to have. With a primary school, church, village shop/post office, pub and village hall, where there are many social events and activities arranged on a regular basis. The village is just four miles N.E. of Chippenham, which has easy access to a wide range of shops, providing an excellent range of shopping facilities and amenities including mainline rail services (Paddington about 75 minutes) and modern sports/leisure centre; excellent road communications provide easy access to the major employment centres of Bath, Bristol and Swindon via the M4 together with London and the West Country. Those with an interest in country and leisure pursuits are well catered for in the area and there is a good choice of both state and private schooling in the region.
