Tucked in Bridgetown within Exmoor National Park, The Old Chapel is an immaculately presented former chapel converted into a spacious three-bedroom home. The house balances period character—high ceilings, granite walls and a turned staircase—with contemporary comforts: a bright open-plan kitchen/diner, multi-burning stoves and double glazing installed after 2002. The double garage with electrics and useful storage above is a rare village benefit and gives secure off-street parking plus workshop space.
The layout suits family life: a welcoming entrance hall, ground-floor shower room, generous sitting room and a practical utility/garden room with direct garden access. Upstairs the principal bedroom has an en-suite, two further bedrooms are well-proportioned and a family bathroom completes the first floor. The rear paved courtyard is low-maintenance, bordered by raised beds and offering private outdoor space rather than a large lawn.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly. The property has recorded internal flooding events in 2012, 2016 and 2023; flood boards and three internal sumps are in place. Flooding risk is assessed as medium. Heating runs on an oil/LPG boiler to radiators (LPG is not a community supply) and the original granite walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, which may affect energy costs and retrofit needs.
This home will suit a buyer seeking a peaceful village lifestyle with strong local character and ready-to-use accommodation—families wanting a move-in-ready house with scope for energy improvements, or those needing substantial garage/workspace. Broadband is fast but mobile signal is reported as none; check connectivity if that matters for work-from-home or rural comms.
