This substantial and imposing former United Reform Church occupies a pleasant location within this popular and sought-after North Essex village, and the building has many notable and important architectural details and as such has been Listed Grade II *.
Planning consent has now been granted for conversion to a stunning contemporary home, with accommodation arranged over two levels, in a striking layout which takes advantage of the large open spaces and impressively high ceilings. A number of the original features are to be kept, including the pulpit, which provides a fabulous focal point in the principal living area, and a number of the pews.
The design has created a layout readily suited to modern lifestyles that combines a high degree of versatility and character, and will blend stylish modern finishes with the imposing and attractive details of the existing structure. The principal living area is situated within the double height space of the main church, and makes the most of the large windows and impressive space. Adjacent to this is a semi-open plan kitchen and breakfast area, which will have French doors to the garden. There is a large study/home office which is situated at the front of the building, and this benefits from the large widows to this elevation. The remainder of the ground floor comprises a large boot/utility room and the two large double bedrooms.
The plans for the first floor are particularly impressive, with two large en-suite bedrooms situated in an elevated position within the gallery to the front of the building, and stained-glass windows that allow views to the open area of the church.
The property is approached via a large drive that provides parking for many vehicles, next to which is a partly walled courtyard, with an attractive yew tree that provides a focal point. The rear garden is of a generous size, and once landscaped in accordance with the plans will provide an attractive and private family entertaining space.
In all about 0.24 of an acre (sts).
