Forming part of the former St Augustine's Chapel, this striking duplex apartment occupies an ornate building that once served the historic St Augustine's Hospital estate. The chapel was carefully converted into residential apartments in the early 2000s, with many of the architectural features remaining, creating a unique blend of character and modern living within the desirable village of Chartham.
It enjoys a convenient position on the development, a stone's throw from the local shop and enjoys access to beautifully maintained communal grounds, comprising an expansive lawn bordered by mature trees and established planting. The historic converted chapel provides an architecturally stunning background to these landscaped surroundings, creating a truly unique and peaceful space to enjoy.
The apartment itself feels more like house, with its own entrance and enclosed private garden. The ground floor is an impressive open-plan living space, with soaring ceilings, striking arched windows and an abundance of natural light. Combining kitchen, dining and sitting areas, this is a lovely open setting to entertain or relax. A glazed door opens directly onto the garden a private and manageable outdoor space, ideal for those who enjoy gardening and outdoor relaxing without the demands of maintaining a larger garden. It features a paved terrace with an area of lawn beyond, complemented by established planting and shrubs. Also on the ground floor, you will find a useful WC/storage room.
Moving upstairs, the bedroom is a beautiful, spacious room which features a vaulted ceiling and an elegantly shaped windows which allow plenty of natural light in. The room offers ample space for freestanding furniture and is complemented by a charming dressing area, where exposed brickwork adds character and provides an ideal space for wardrobes and a dressing table.
The bathroom shares the same vaulted ceilings and has a white suite consisting of a bath with a shower over, WC and wash basin.
The property benefits from a secure allocated parking space, situated behind electric gates and conveniently located directly opposite the building on Godfrey Gardens.
