Village Location
A detached and individual, 3 bedroom, converted former chapel. This property benefits from a wealth of character as well as stylish and flexible accommodation, double garage and off-road parking.
The Old Chapel is a charming 3 bedroom former chapel which was converted approximately 25 years ago. This enchanting home is steeped in history and has been sympathetically upgraded to provide the best contemporary living whilst retaining a sense of charm and character. The owner has taken great care to present the property to the highest of standards, seamlessly uniting modern day living with original charm whilst taking care to improve the integrity of the property. The Old Chapel will appeal to families and to those who simply want an idyllic village life.
In brief, the property comprises an entrance hall, a well designed kitchen/breakfast room with aga, fitted electric ovens, induction hob, wine cooler, and useful island. This area is ideal for informal socialising with family and friends. Further on the ground floor is a cloakroom, rear porch and an office which features an original fireplace. The crowning glory of The Old Chapel is the magnificent and awe inspiring reception room with vaulted ceiling and impressive stone fireplace with wood burner inset. Further features include leaded mullion windows and stained glass windows.
This area is set up for formal dining as well as providing a relaxed sitting room space and is perfect setting for entertaining. Stairs lead to the galleried landing off which there are 3 bedrooms, the master having an en suite shower room, and a family bathroom.
The sought after West Chinnock lies a short distance from the A30 between Yeovil and Crewkerne. This pretty village features many period dwellings as well as more modern homes with local facilities to include a small village primary school, pub, church and village hall. The A303 is also a relatively short drive to the north, giving road access east and west. There is quick access to nearby Crewkerne and a little further away is the larger commercial town of Yeovil. Both towns offer mainline railway stations with direct connection to London Waterloo.
To the front of the property are iron railing gates beyond which a pathway leads to the impressive, original oak front door and also to the rear garden. Here there are two levels, the lower consists of patio. Steps rise to the second level which is largely laid to lawn, which wraps around the side of The Old Chapel, together with further areas of patio. There is also a double garage to the rear with additional parking available outside the garage doors.
