Summary - The Little Goat, Maerdy, CORWEN LL21 0NR
1 bed 1 bath Plot
Unique conversion plot with character features set on a very large village plot — covenants apply.
Gothic Revival stone church with preserved stained glass
A rare development plot offered freehold in Maerdy: the Former St Catherine’s Church is a well-built Gothic Revival stone building with high ceilings, exposed beams, original marble pulpit and stained-glass windows. The main church space and attached vestry are intact and in good condition for their age, set within a very large private plot with a lawn, dry stone walls and off-street parking from a large layby. The site benefits from mains electric, wall-mounted electric heating, excellent mobile signal and a peaceful rural village setting about 4 miles from Corwen.
This opportunity will suit buyers seeking a distinctive conversion or refurbishment project. The building’s character features — arched windows, wooden floors and preserved stained glass — give strong scope for an atmospheric single dwelling, holiday let or alternative D1/commercial uses, subject to planning and statutory permissions. The site is sold chain free with vacant possession and no flood risk recorded.
Important restrictions and costs apply and will materially affect use and development. The sale is conditional on a range of covenants: no religious use or alcohol manufacture/sale, prohibition on use associated with the church name, restrictions on weddings and certain noisy or offensive uses, and obligations regarding access to any retained churchyard. The purchaser must not excavate without all necessary consents (Disused Burial Grounds legislation applies) and must agree to erect and maintain a boundary fence/wall where required. The purchaser will share footpath maintenance costs and must comply with faculty regulations for works related to church items and rights of access.
Prospective buyers should note services have not been tested, planning status is not confirmed and the vendor (a registered charity) may continue to consider other offers until exchange. Legal and specialist surveys are strongly recommended to understand costs, consent requirements and the implications of retained land/rights before bidding.
