On 19 October 1983 the building became listed Grade 2.

Chapel,
built
1826,
almost
habitable
(we
are
living
there).
Planning
allows about 2500 M2 of living area, which makes for a sensible
size.
Current is for 5 bedrooms and 4/5 bathrooms plus massive living area. Currently built, and habitable are 1 bedroom and 2 bathrooms, 2nd bathroom being used as temporary kitchen. Damp proof course installed, hot water, central heating, Rayburn cooker/heating, insulation, etc. Make no mistake that this property requires a lot more work to complete. But consider the asking price of £150,000 against a completed value of £300,000+. All mains services connected: Electric, gas, water, sewage (just cost me £8000), broadband. For planning details please visit Wrexham Council, planning ref; 2012/0665. This place is an absolute steal because we have run out of money to complete the project. £1000's of materials included in price.  |

 This former Methodist Chapel was built in 1836 and converted in 2005. It is situated in the scenic fenland village of Upwell, on the Norfolk/Cambridgeshire border, 30 miles from Cambridge. It is in a conservation area but is not listed. The contemporary design is by award-winning architect Jeremy Harrall from Search Architects. Downstairs, the chapel has 3 bedrooms, one with a large en-suite wet room, a main bathroom with extra large bath and a utility room. A wide spiral staircase in the centre of the ground floor leads to a mezzanine floor above. The open plan living area upstairs is the highlight of the property, comprising kitchen, dining, study and lounge areas. In order to maximise the light to the downstairs bedrooms, the first floor is balconied on three sides and does not touch the outer walls, giving a galleried effect. The roof beams & windows are original features. In the living area there is an anthracite burning stove. The kitchen is fitted with a dishwasher, double butler sink, Neff double oven and De Deitrich induction hob. Behind the property, there is a compact, low maintenance garden with off road parking for one car.  |

Detached chapel conversion situated in
an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) – David Bellamy described
this fellside area between the Lake District and Hadrian’s Wall as
‘England’s last wilderness’. Village setting with pub/restaurant, and excellent local schools nearby. Unusually for a chapel conversion, the property has a generous garden, including walled cottage garden area, lawn and a driveway providing parking for 4 cars. A special feature of the house appealing to families with children is the “Secret” wardrobe door (inspired by “the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”) that leads from bedroom 3 into play area/bedroom 4. There is also a treehouse in the garden, and the small stream next to the house is safe for paddling/netting and catching small fish (if the resident heron doesn’t get there first!) The Old Chapel has a large dining kitchen with Aga, living room with log-burning stove, 3-4 bedrooms, 2 en-suites, main bathroom and utility room/workshop/store. The property has oil-fired central heating, an oil-fired Aga and log-burning/multi-fuel stove. The features include the stained glass windows, wood floor from a church, stone corbels, beamed ceiling, use of old pine pews which have been made into doors, skirting boards and staircase. In the dining kitchen, a mahogany, former CO-OP counter provides a useful worksurface and serving area together with the Chapel’s original lecturn and balustrade separating the entrance from the dining area which complements the Aga to provide a most characterful and welcoming kitchen.  |
