Description

Originally part of a 19th century Methodist church, the current owners have converted and curated this property into a very unique modern home whilst retaining much of its period charm.

The entrance hall leads through to the living room with vaulted ceilings. Light pours into this space from the original church feature window and newly added skylights. A custom made oak staircase leads from this level to the mezzanine bedroom area with a beautiful porthole window with views over the rooftops of Kintbury.

The Kitchen/ dining room is a masterful use of space and design. Integrated modern AEG appliances sit alongside a custom designed quartz island unit to give clear identities to the practical and entertaining spaces of this room.

To the rear the sitting room has full height glass doors to let the light in and give access to the garden.

The ground floor double bedroom is a calm space with plenty of room to add fitted wardrobes, while next to this is the family bathroom with separate shower and bath.

There is also a guest cloakroom on the ground floor with useful utility space that leads to a store room which provides excellent storage facilities and then onto the boiler room.

Finally, there is a light filled study to the front of the house accessed by a separate staircase and which features the original church window.

Outside the property benefits from its own very private rear garden. Part paved and part gravelled, it is a perfectly formed external area in which to enjoy outdoor dining.
