Effective Renovations: Former Methodist Church Now a Family Home

A former Methodist church in northwestern Leicestershire, originally built in Gothic style, is now an ideal two-story family home with 325 square meters of living space.

Windows with Gothic arches allow an abundance of natural light, while double doors with original stained glass lead into the living room. The central feature is an Inglenook fireplace.

The conversion was carefully planned to retain and utilize the wealth of original architectural features while incorporating conditions for modern living. For example, the stairs leading to the first floor are made from wood from the original altars and pews.

The emphasis, however, is on the ground floor of the house, where the dining room and kitchen are located, featuring a central island with a granite surface and a breakfast bar.

Vehicle access with a gate has been built, and the property also includes a lawn and its own yard.

Current offers for this property reach 600,000 British pounds.
