A substantial & impressive unlisted period family home with a plot of 1.14 acres sympathetically converted from a convent church with generous well-presented accommodation, private walled garden, large kitchen garden & paddock. Plenty of parking & garage.
Description: The Church is one of six large properties converted in 1991 from a former Brigittine convent originally dating from 1887. The convent was formally named the Abbey Church of St Bridget of Syon, or locally known as Syon Abbey. An outline of the history can be found on the Chudleigh History Group website.
The architect designed and sympathetic conversion of The Church ensures the property functions well as a comfortable family home making the best use of the available space, whilst also retaining the wealth of features and impressive dimensions of the former church. In particular the stunning dining hall with its vaulted ceilings, stain glass window commemorating the Chudleigh miracle, tiled floor, and Italian marble columns. The property has been in the same ownership since it was converted.
Accommodation extends to around 268 square meters or 2888 square feet including the dining hall/family room, kitchen, utility room, living room, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, study/5th bedroom, entrance hall, conservatory and cloakroom/WC. Outside the plot measures over an acre with a beautifully landscaped and private walled garden off the house leading to the garage and driveway parking. There is also an impressive kitchen garden and a paddock for a pony or horse, or offering potential for development subject to planning permission.
The property has all the amenities you would expect from a modern home including fibre broadband and gas central heating, and has achieved a respectable ‘D’ rating on the EPC.

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.
In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:
avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.
min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
