3 Bedroom Apartment

Occupying a prominent position in the centre of this highly regarded Exmoor village, this distinctive former Methodist chapel offers an excellent mixed use opportunity, combining ground floor commercial premises with a generous and well-appointed three bedroom apartment above.

Dating back to circa 1837, the building served the local community as a Methodist Chapel for approximately 90 years before being converted to commercial use. In more recent years it has been successfully operated as a restaurant/café, though the versatile ground floor accommodation would lend itself to a variety of alternative uses, subject to the usual planning consents.

Commercial Premises
The ground floor shop/resturant extends to approximately 778 sq ft and benefits from attractive double bay-fronted windows and exposed timber flooring. A kitchen and separate W.C. are currently in the process of being installed, providing practical facilities for continued hospitality use or alternative commercial ventures.

Residential Accommodation
The self-contained apartment is arranged over the first and second floors and is accessed via its own private entrance. The accommodation has been refurbished and features double-glazed timber-framed windows and electric heating.

A private entrance hall leads to a staircase rising to a first-floor landing/study area, enhanced by a feature leaded-light window. From here there is access to a contemporary shower room fitted with a stylish three-piece white and chrome suite.

The open-plan living space enjoys pleasant views over the High Street and incorporates a modern fitted kitchen comprising cream-coloured base and wall units with timber-effect worktops, a one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink, plumbing for a washing machine and an integrated oven and hob with stainless steel splashback and extractor hood.

Also on the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both enjoying similar village outlooks, together with a modern family bathroom fitted with a three-piece white and chrome suite with shower over the bath.

An enclosed staircase from the living area leads to the second floor, where a charming third bedroom features exposed beams and Velux windows, creating a bright and characterful space.

Outside
To the front of the property is a forecourt area serving the shop/restaurant, which includes one parking space.
From Minehead proceed on the A39 to Porlock, proceed into the village passing the Royal Oak pub on the right and the property will be found shortly after on the right just after the right turn into Sparkhayes Lane.
