Description

Claremont Chapel is a rare and unique family home, beautifully converted from its origins as a Methodist Church. The craftmanship is exquisite, with bespoke Shaker & May joinery and interior design by Woodhouse and Law. This family home has exceptional living space taking advantage of the dramatic volume of this once-ecclesiastical building, with five large bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms, two of which are en suite, as well as a separate study. The master bedroom suite is double height, with the original roof rafters visible and far-reaching views to the South over Bath. The large master en-suite bathroom is accessed via a generous dressing room, and has a separate WC, double vanity unit, a free-standing Victoria and Albert bath, and a beautiful walk-in shower. The guest suite is on a separate level, with a walk-through dressing room and a marble tiled bathroom.

The double height living space in the centre of the house is striking with original stained-glass window, in beautiful bright colours, visible up close from the mezzanine library overlooking the living area, and with views to the North of Solsbury Hill, made famous by the Peter Gabriel song.

The thermal performance and heating strategy has been carefully designed and implemented within the Chapel. All internal surfaces have been insulated, the main living space has specially designed secondary glazing installed, the bedrooms have new double-glazed timber sash windows, the main living areas and bathrooms have underfloor heating, and the bedrooms have beautiful new column radiators.

Rare for a former church, the property has a generous south-facing garden with wonderful views over Bath, designed by Woodhouse & Law to include a large patio area, lawn, planting beds, external lighting, terraced gravel areas and new fencing surrounding the property.

The property comes with two residents parking permits and visitor permits.
