An imposing former chapel set on an elevated plot in the hamlet of Welsh Frankton, offered with full planning permission (ref 24/00559/FUL) to convert into a stylish two-bedroom home of around 1,200–1,280 sq ft. The conversion scheme preserves the building’s characterful Gothic Revival features and benefits from private gardens and off-street parking to the west and south, plus far-reaching panoramic views across north Shropshire countryside.
This is a clear opportunity for a buyer seeking a distinctive, character conversion rather than a move-in-ready home. Mains water, electricity and drainage are connected; the consented design provides an open-plan ground floor with a mezzanine bedroom. The parcel extends to roughly 0.07 acres, offering a manageable garden and several parking spaces once the former function room is removed and surfaced.
Notable practical points include the rural location (about 1.7 miles from Ellesmere), excellent mobile signal but slow fixed broadband, and an ageing neighbourhood context. The property is freehold and vacant on completion. Buyers should allow for conversion costs, internal fit-out and any unexpected repair work typical of older stone buildings.
This plot will suit owner-occupiers wanting a one-off countryside home or a small-scale developer looking to deliver a striking, characterful residence with excellent outlooks. All planning documents are available via the local planning portal under the stated reference; purchasers should satisfy themselves on scope and conditions of the consent before exchange.
