Description

NO ONWARD CHAIN - A beautifully converted, 12th Century church rebuilt in the 19th Century to create a historic and unusual home. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, sitting room, kitchen, gardens, off street parking.

This delightful country church has been converted into an unusual but surprisingly cosy home. Full of interesting and historic artifacts, the history of the building shines through into the modern home features such as underfloor heating. Constructed of malmstone with limestone render under a clay tiled roof, the property retains the bell tower, constructed with a weather boarded square base, an octagonal louvered stage and lead covered spirelet. This was fully renovated 3 years ago by the current owner, along with extensive renovations to the roof. The windows are all refoiled lancets - two pairs in each wall of the nave and chancel and triplets in the east and west gable walls. Facing east is a beautiful 19th century stained glass window with a second one by Kempe gracing the bathroom.
The raised sitting room area is accessed through the grand chancel arch and has a large, stone suround fire place positioned centrally on the north wall. The large dining area provides ample entertaining space and sits under the impressive wooden vaulted ceiling, with access to the terrace via the enormous sash windows which open to the floor.
Many of the Ecclesiastical furnishings remain including a listed Jacobean Pulpit crafted from oak, a Crusader font thought to date back to the 13th Century and an ancient piscine. Various monuments are still preserved on the walls and there is an extensive reference to the church in the Pevsner Architectural Guide.
Sitting above the living space on a large mezzanine is one of the double bedrooms, graced either side by ample wardrobes. The second double bedroom is below this and has an ensuite bathroom. A further family bathroom and separate WC are next door and the kitchen sits at the back, overlooking the gardens to the rear. From here is a private terrace area with scope for a possible extenstion to the kitchen (subject to planning).
The churchyard itself has been transformed into a pretty country garden with trees and borders. There is a terrace area on the western side with access to the crypt and a further terrace area on the northern side overlooking the lawn. The important headstones remain at the eastern end of the garden and include a tomb belonging to the founding Crusader which is separately listed Grade II. A church has sat on this site since the 12th Century when it is thought to have belonged to the prior and monks of St Swithun's, Winchester. In the 19th Century the church was largely rebuilt to a design by architect Henry Weaver in a 13th Centry Gothic style and incorporating many elements of the medieval predecessor. The property is ideal for a couple or single person wanting a weekend retreat or a comfortable country home.
