Stepping into the property, you ll find yourself in the original vestibule before entering the main living area the high ceilings create a real feeling of space. The contemporary interior includes underfloor heating and modern appliances such as a large Smart TV that blends seamlessly with the original features. The open plan lounge/kitchen/diner has been well thought out and the original pews have even been incorporated into the design. Comfortable sofas and a large dining table enable everyone to be able to eat together. The kitchen area has a dual fuel range cooker, instant boiling water tap on the island unit, and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. From the lounge area, a bespoke staircase with treads made from the church s original seating leads to a mezzanine level which has some of the best views in the house.
