Unique period home offering large rooms and mezzanine living in village fringe.
Spacious three-bedroom detached church conversion with high arched windows
Set in the heart of Bere Alston, The Old Chapel is an expansive three-bedroom detached conversion with striking high arched windows and generous ceiling heights. The former chapel layout includes a large open-plan living area with a contemporary mezzanine, abundant natural light and period character that will appeal to buyers seeking unique, roomy accommodation.
This property is being marketed as suitable for purchasers aged 60+ under the Home for Life Lifetime Lease from Homewise. Typical savings against full market value range from 20%–50%; a guide Lifetime Lease price for this property is £301,500 (market value £450,000). The plan allows buyers to buy up to a 50% share to safeguard equity — individual price depends on age and circumstances.
Practical points to check: tenure/lease details are unknown and must be verified by your solicitor. The conversion may require confirmation of planning and building regulation consents, and interested buyers should confirm the condition of services and fixtures. The property sits in an ageing rural/urban fringe community with some area deprivation but very low crime and fast broadband.
For buyers seeking character, space and a peaceful small-town setting, this converted chapel offers rare scale and flexibility. Be mindful that formal legal checks, potential maintenance and any required consents are material considerations before purchase.
