Description

This imposing, prominent, detached property which opened its doors for the first time in April 1925 is constructed of traditional brick walls under a tile hung pitched roof. The property comprises of a ground floor former church premises with various ancillary rooms and a first floor providing offices, balcony (seating area), welfare facilities and a secondary meeting room. Externally there is a tarmac front parking area suitable for approx. 3 cars. The overall site is approx. 8,258 Sq Ft (0.190 acres). The Church was used for a variety of church related uses but closed its doors in October 2025. There are multiple access points to the building. The main hall is accessed via glazed doors leading to a small entrance foyer with recently refurbished WC's. The main church hall with excellent 25ft ceiling height has capacity to seat in excess of 100 with an additional rear lounge area. The hall has a pulpit and traditional organ. Off the main hall is a former vestry room. The ground floor also houses a ministers office with private WC, former kitchen and a substantial secondary hall with in built kitchen. This room has direct street access if required. The property has a very small basement accessed via steep concrete stairs which are located within the boiler room. The first floor is accessed via internal stairs and provides three further office rooms, a kitchen, WC's and a large meeting room which we believe was used for musical rehearsals. Within the striking tower is a further stairwell which leads to a balcony level overlooking the main church hall. Pew seating for approximately 45/50 parishioners in this area. Internally the property does require some refurbishment to bring it up to standard of modern day but given its age and use this shouldn't be unexpected. The property benefits from gas central heating (not tested), mixture of single and secondary double glazing, carpeting throughout, ample electrical points, various light fittings and is presented to the market with full vacant possession ready for a purchaser to fit out.
