A CHANCE TO BUY A STUNNING CHAPEL TO CONVERT - PLANNING PERMISSION GRANTED WITH 3 BEDROOMS, A FEATURE, ARCHED GLAZED WINDOW WITH VIEWS TO DARTMOOR, AND NO NEAR NEIGHBOURS.

Planning permission has been granted on this substantial former Methodist church which will become a stylish 3 bedroom detached home with an arched window on the gable end, which will provide views towards Dartmoor and allow in an abundance of natural light, where the use of glass internally will create a stylish, modern and light living and bedroom space.

Cleverly, with the use of a secondary staircase, the property could be easily used as a B & B or a holiday property as one bedroom is completely discreet from the others, with the downstairs easily divided for owners/guests in mind. The plans would also work for families who would want an independent room for a teenager or as a master suite, or for a dependent relative.

The proposed floorplans (available to see further on in the brochure and on-line) show how spacious the living space will be, with aforementioned arched window on the eastern elevation, being a real feature both from this room and the upstairs bedrooms. The eastern gable wall, in the plans, will be recessed to provide an accessible outside sitting area. The kitchen/dining room is located centrally with the utility, secondary kitchen space and/or a study situated off.

On the opposite side of the road the whole strip of the land belongs to the church. This includes the outbuilding which has potential to be used for garaging or storage. This area could be easily enclosed to provide lots of off-road parking or used for a garden or kitchen/garden, dependent on requirements, and relevant permissions. This great opportunity is well worthy of consideration. The plans are fantastic and with no near neighbours and far reaching views – The Chapel is a superb project.

LOCATION The Chapel enjoys an elevated location, backing onto open farmland with some amazing countryside views. It is situated just outside the village of North Tamerton which is a quiet, rural hamlet, and also lies within 3 miles of the village of Whitstone which has a Spar/sub post office and a county primary school.

The church is located between the towns of Bude, Launceston and Holsworthy. Bude enjoys stunning cliff top walks and 2 sandy beaches, Holsworthy has an open air market every Wednesday and a Waitrose supermarket and Launceston has Access onto the main A30 trunk road leading to Exeter, the M5 and beyond. Each town has a range of commercial, educational and recreational facilities

Places of interest

    Established in 1924, Webbers estate agents are a national award winning, independent estate agency, voted in the Top 3 estate agents in the UK for customer service in 2014. We have 16 West Country offices for residential sales & lettings in North Devon, West Somerset, Exmoor and Cornwall.

Bude is a popular coastal resort located on the North Cornish coast, nearing the very northerly border of Cornwall into Devon.  This part of the coastline is extremely rugged with very high cliff tops and tucked away coves.  The best known beach in the area is Widemouth Bay, just to the south of Bude, which is a lovely sandy beach ideal for surfing.  There are two sandy beaches within very easy reach of the town centre called Crooklets and Summerleaze respectively. Bude has a historic past with the Canal and lock gates being an important part of the heritage of the town along with Bude Castle which is now a gallery, museum and restaurant.  The canal side has just been rejuvenated with new businesses opening and the town's library is also located there.  Bude was a prosperous Victorian seaside resort with the trains and canal providing access to and from Exeter.  Bude still is a town by the sea rather than a seaside resort, so although we do have a busy tourist period, the town remains vibrant with many things to do for all age groups throughout the year.

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
