Description

A former detached Methodist chapel of traditional stone wall construction, set beneath a pitched slate roof covering in the hamlet of Bronant which provides a primary school, shop and restaurant/public house and set within a semi-rural location. The chapel may be suitable for a number of alternative uses such as storage or residential conversion, subject to obtaining all necessary consents and is located in a predominantly residential area.

The building is located in a convenient location on the A485 Aberystwyth/Tregaron road, with the seaside and University town of Aberystwyth approximately 12 miles to the north west and the market town of Tregaron approximately 7 miles to the south east. The picturesque seaside village of Aberaeron with its harbour is located 15 miles to the west.

The chapel built circa 1836 has a large central arched window, flanked by smaller windows above each porch, with three tall arched framed windows to both side elevations. The chapel has high ceilings which are decorated with plaster lighting roses and benefits from approximately 1,800 sq.ft of floor space and retains a number of original features including the pews and pulpit.

There is a cemetery to the front, rear and sides of the building, which we are advised is not included in the sale. We understand that the property benefits from a right of way on foot and by vehicle in common with all others entitled. Please refer to the legal pack for further information.

* Generally speaking Guide Prices are provided as an indication of each seller's minimum expectation, i.e. 'The Reserve'. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Virtually every property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide.
