Characterful two-bedroom former chapel with large garden and garage, needing modernisation..
- Detached former chapel with traditional stone character
- Large garden and generous plot for outdoor use
- Substantial garage plus driveway parking
- Two bedrooms, single-storey bungalow layout
- EPC F — poor energy efficiency and higher running costs
- Dining room shows potential damp and mould risk
- No mobile signal and slow broadband speeds
- Medium local flood risk to consider
Set in the peaceful fellside village of Murton, this detached former chapel (built 1841) offers a quiet rural retreat with far-reaching countryside views and a generous garden. The single-storey layout is practical for downsizers or those seeking a permanent home with easy access to walking on Murton Pike. A large garage and driveway parking add useful storage and off-road space.
Internally the bungalow provides comfortable living rooms, two bedrooms and a bathroom across about 732 sq ft. The property retains traditional stone character but the decor and some fixtures are dated; the dining room notes potential damp and mould risk and the house will benefit from updating. Energy performance is poor (EPC F), so expect higher running costs and possible improvement work to heating and insulation.
Practical considerations are straightforward: freehold tenure, affordable Council Tax Band C, low local crime and good nearby primary and secondary schools. Downsides include medium flood risk for the area, no mobile signal on site and slow broadband speeds — factors to weigh if you work from home or rely on digital connectivity. Overall, this is a characterful rural home with scope for renovation and efficiency upgrades, ideal for buyers prioritising location and outdoor space over immediate modernisation.
