Bell Hl - Mount Pleasant 2,412 SF Specialty Building Offered at $66,875 in Grange Over Sands LA11 6LD

Once the ‘beating heart’ of the village this beautiful, Grade II listed Lake District Church (built in 1828) is very sadly now closed, in need of repair and a new lease of life. This does present a very exciting and unique opportunity for those imaginative buyers looking for a rewarding and unusual project. This historic building boasts a wealth of stunning period features, including beautiful stained glass windows, ornate wooden fretwork (some to be removed) and intricate stonework. There is real potential (subject to relevant consents) that this magnificent and peaceful building could potentially become (with lots of determination and vision) an enviable, charming and unique home. Perhaps some sort of community hub? There are certainly many possibilities. Whatever is decided it is a chance to preserve a very special piece of local history while enhancing its value through thoughtful restoration.
The original main doors are to the side and lead into the main part of the building (where the congregation would have been seated) There are several large stained glass windows either side, beautiful stone work and high, heavily beamed, pitched ceiling. Although now in somewhat of a sorry state in parts it does still feel peaceful, calming and the architecture is very beautiful.
Although we expect the organ, altar and font to be removed they currently remain ‘in situ’. There is a small ‘Kitchen’ with sink, WC with wash hand basin and Vestry with external door. Externally there are gated stone steps leading down to the ‘Store Room’ and a further door around to the side where the ‘Boiler Room’ can be found.
