Conversion consent for a four-bedroom home with generous garden and ample parking.
Grade II* listed former United Reformed Church with strong period character
A striking Grade II* former United Reformed Church in the heart of Castle Hedingham, offered with planning consent to convert into a four-bedroom home. The conversion design preserves dramatic original features — high vaulted ceilings, arched windows, pulpit and pews — while introducing contemporary living spaces, an open-plan principal living area and a gallery of en-suite bedrooms.
Set on about 0.24 acre, the site includes a generous rear garden, a partly walled courtyard centred on an established yew, and a wide drive providing ample off-street parking for several vehicles. The layout makes the most of natural light from large windows and French doors opening onto the garden, creating a strong indoor–outdoor connection for family entertaining and day-to-day living.
Buyers should note this is a listed building and Listed Building Consent applies; the status brings planning constraints and will increase specialist repair and maintenance costs. There is an existing pedestrian right of way across the front yard to a neighbouring garden gate. EPC exempt and council tax not applicable in current form. Professional advice is recommended to confirm costs and programme for works.
This is a rare development opportunity for a purchaser seeking a characterful, substantial home in an affluent village setting with good local schools and amenities. The consented conversion reduces planning risk, while the building’s period fabric offers scope for a uniquely stylish result, subject to the usual listed-building considerations.
