The Chapel, Chartham CT4

Guide price £175,000 - £190,000.

A beautifully unique one-bedroom mezzanine home forming part of a converted chapel that once served the historic St. Augustine's Hospital estate. The chapel was carefully converted into residential apartments in the early 2000s, with many of the architectural features remaining, creating a unique blend of character and modern living within the desirable village of Chartham.

It enjoys a convenient position on the development, a stone's throw from the local shop and enjoys access to beautifully maintained communal grounds, comprising an expansive lawn bordered by mature trees and established planting. The historic converted chapel provides an architecturally stunning background to these landscaped surroundings, creating a truly unique and peaceful space to enjoy.

The property itself is utterly charming, beautifully presented and is perfect for those looking for a low-maintenance home with allocated parking, their own outdoor space and is ready to move straight into.

Behind the striking arched façade, this stunning home opens into an impressive double-height living space. The open-plan layout creates a wonderful sense of space, with the kitchen, dining area and sitting room flowing together beneath the mezzanine bedroom above, offering a lovely space to relax in or host friends and family in a characterful and atmospheric setting. The current owners have configured the layout to suit modern living, incorporating a space for a comfortable home office setup. The kitchen is well-appointed, with a range of matching wall and base units offering a good amount of storage and space for food preparation. There is an integrated oven with a gas hob, washing machine and space for a freestanding fridge/freezer. There was previously a dishwasher installed, and the necessary connections remain in place should a new owner wish to reinstall one.

Stairs rise to a spacious mezzanine bedroom, framed by beautiful, exposed brick arches that celebrate the building's history. The large arched glazing below, as well as the skylights flood the space with natural light making it a wonderful room to relax and wake up to in the morning. Off the bedroom, you will find a beautifully appointed shower room thoughtfully designed to create a boutique hotel feel. It features a generous walk-in shower, a bespoke vanity unit with countertop wash basin, attractive tiling and elegant brass-effect fittings. There is also access to a large storage cupboard.

The property benefits from its own private outdoor space in the form of a delightful sun terrace to the front. Beautifully low-maintenance, it provides the perfect setting for colourful pots and seasonal planting, creating a peaceful spot to enjoy a morning coffee, an evening drink or a quiet moment with a good book.

The property has a secure allocated parking space, situated behind electric gates and conveniently located directly opposite the building on Godfrey Gardens.
