Saron Chapel is a remarkable Victorian chapel conversion, beautifully transformed into a distinctive countryside home with far-reaching rural views. This is not the same proposition as when it was first purchased; the current vendor has undertaken an extensive programme of refurbishment inside and out, carefully restoring, improving and elevating the property to create a home of real warmth, character and quality.

Set within the peaceful Shropshire countryside, the chapel now offers a wonderful balance of historic charm and comfortable modern living, with flexible accommodation, thoughtfully designed low-maintenance gardens, generous parking and a superb garden room.

On entering the property, you are welcomed into an impressive living/dining room (4.87m x 6.47m), a magnificent double-height space which immediately captures the individuality of this unique home. Period windows, a durable stone tiled floor and a feature stone fireplace with an electric Everhot stove create a warm, atmospheric and inviting central living area. Spacious enough for both relaxing and dining, this striking room is ideal for everyday life as well as entertaining, with stairs rising to a half-landing and enhancing the wonderful sense of height and openness.

The ground floor also includes a newly fitted shower room (2.35m x 1.42m), comprising an enclosed shower, WC, wash basin and radiator. Conveniently positioned between the ground floor bedrooms, it provides a practical and stylish facility for both residents and guests.

There are two bedrooms on the ground floor. Bedroom two (3.44m x 2.44m) provides a comfortable double room with space for additional furniture, together with a door opening directly onto the terraced garden, creating a lovely connection between the inside and outside space. Bedroom three (3.43m x 2.39m) is another well-proportioned bedroom, featuring carpeted flooring and a high-level window which allows natural light while retaining a calm and private feel.

To the first floor, the newly fitted kitchen (2.89m x 4.22m) has been designed with both style and practicality in mind. Contemporary and well appointed, it features a breakfast bar, elegant marble work surfaces, ample storage cupboards and wall units, a Belfast-style ceramic sink, American-style fridge freezer, new dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. Doors open directly onto the elevated decking, perfectly positioned for morning coffee, alfresco dining or simply taking in the beautiful countryside views.

The generous principal bedroom (3.11m x 5.24m) offers excellent space for a double bed and further furnishings. Two skylight windows set within the pitched ceiling, together with exposed beams, bring warmth, charm and natural light to the room. This bedroom also benefits from access to a separate dressing room and a private ensuite bathroom (2.34m x 3.14m), which is both characterful and well appointed, with a freestanding clawfoot bath, separate enclosed shower, WC, wash basin and radiator. Exposed timber beams, half-tiled and half-painted walls, and a skylight above all add to the charm of the space.

Currently arranged as an office, the versatile office/bedroom four (3.34m x 3.14m) could easily be used as a fourth bedroom, guest room, creative studio or additional dining space if required. Full of character, it features a distinctive window and balcony rail overlooking the living space below, adding to the chapel’s sense of individuality.

From here, a door leads through to one of the standout features of the property: the superb garden room (4.60m x 3.38m). Positioned at the top of the terraced garden and enjoying an elevated outlook across the surrounding countryside, the garden room is light, stylish and highly versatile. With attractive flooring, a wood-burning stove and double-glazed doors opening onto a terrace with space for seating, it would make an ideal home office, studio, hobby room, guest area, wellness space or separate business area.

For those working from home, the chapel is also extremely well equipped for modern professional life, with fast internet allowing the current owner to run online meetings from the property and work with clients globally. It is a rare combination — peaceful countryside living with the connectivity needed for remote working, online business or creative enterprise.

Outside, the property benefits from generous off-road parking to the side of the chapel for approximately four vehicles, together with additional gated access to the rear of the garden. The gardens have been thoughtfully designed to be attractive yet low maintenance, making them easy to enjoy without requiring constant upkeep. Terraced areas, elevated decking, gravelled seating spaces and mature planting create a series of inviting outdoor spaces for relaxing, entertaining and dining while making the most of the far-reaching views.

For keen gardeners, there is still plenty of scope to personalise the outside space further. Subtle changes could be made to suit individual taste, and the upper driveway area, for example, could potentially be returned to lawn if desired, creating a softer garden feel while retaining the flexibility of the plot.

Saron Chapel is situated in Craigllwyn, a rural hamlet between Llansilin and Trefonen, an area known for its beautiful countryside and village atmosphere. Trefonen offers local amenities including a village shop, primary school and public house, while Oswestry is approximately three miles away and provides a wider range of shops, schools and leisure facilities.

This stunning property is more than a converted period building; it is a home that has been carefully renewed, restored and reimagined. Offering character, flexibility, modern comfort, excellent connectivity and extraordinary countryside views, it presents a rare opportunity to acquire a chapel conversion where the hard work has already been done. Early viewing is highly recommended.
