EXCLUSIVE TO !
Once a 17th-century chapel and local orphanage, this remarkable property has been lovingly transformed into a spacious family home that marries centuries-old charm with modern, eco-conscious living.
As spring unfolds and summer approaches, the home fills with natural light and a wonderful sense of openness. Inside, you’ll find four generous bedrooms, including a master suite with walk-in wardrobe and en suite, a stylish guest suite, and two further large doubles — each enjoying bright, airy proportions and views over the surrounding countryside.
The original chapel, graced with magnificent stained glass windows that cast colourful patterns throughout the day, now serves as a truly unique library and reading room. This inspiring space is ideal for quiet mornings, creative pursuits, or simply relaxing with a book, and benefits from its own shower room and WC.
The expansive living areas are designed for both everyday living and entertaining: a bright kitchen and welcoming dining area perfect for long, relaxed meals, a comfortable living room with wood burner for cooler evenings, a charming piano room, a dedicated office, two utility rooms, and a convenient ground-floor WC.
Blending history with innovation, this character-filled home offers an impressive range of eco-friendly features, including a thermodynamic hot water system, photovoltaic panels, gas central heating, a heat pump, and an air-to-air hot/cool system — ensuring an efficient and comfortable environment throughout the warmer months and beyond.
Outside, a covered terrace provides an ideal setting for al fresco dining and summer gatherings, overlooking gardens that burst into life with colour and greenery, gently sloping down to the river’s edge. A small outbuilding and two garages/workshops complete the picture, all set within a peaceful hamlet close to local amenities.
A rare opportunity to own a piece of history, perfectly suited to spring and summer living — and to be enjoyed throughout the year.
If you want it brighter still, more luxury-leaning, or shortened for a listing, just tell me.
