Little Chapel, Goodleigh, Barnstaple, EX32 7LX

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Goodleigh, this truly exceptional converted chapel is one of those rare properties that stops you in your tracks.

Please note that this property is subject to a holiday let restriction, meaning it cannot be used as a permanent residential dwelling; however, for the astute investor, this represents a compelling and characterful opportunity in a thriving holiday market, with a strong calendar of bookings already in place and no onward chain to navigate.

From the moment you approach, the Victorian chapel façade, with its warm brick elevations, decorative gabled frontage, and arched windows, makes an unforgettable first impression.

Step through the sage-green arched front door, and you are immediately transported into a space where ecclesiastical grandeur meets contemporary comfort.

The soaring vaulted ceilings and windows flood the interior with jewel-toned light throughout the day, creating an atmosphere that is quite unlike anything a conventional property could offer.

The heart of the home is the magnificent open plan kitchen and living room, where the full drama of the original chapel space is laid bare.

Exposed timber roof trusses span the double-height ceiling, while a suite of tall arched glass windows frames the room in colour and light.

The bespoke sage green shaker kitchen with dark worktops and brass hardware is beautifully considered, incorporating the original chapel's decorative panelled woodwork, now painted in a soft heritage tone, as a stunning architectural backdrop.

A freestanding wood-burning stove with a dramatic flue rising to the apex of the ceiling anchors the living area, which comfortably accommodates two generous sofas and a characterful wooden dining suite beside original pew-style seating.

The staircase, lit from above by a tall, pointed arch window, rises elegantly to the first floor, where the principal bedroom offers a wonderfully peaceful retreat.

With its vaulted ceiling and arched windows, this double room has all the calm of a countryside sanctuary.

A second double bedroom on the ground floor completes the sleeping accommodation, alongside a beautifully appointed shower room finished in marble-effect panelling with sage cabinetry, brass fittings, and a rainfall shower, a truly luxurious touch.

The first floor also features a charming reading nook with a tufted green velvet armchair, perfect for guests looking to unwind with a book.

The property benefits from an impressive 'A' energy rating, solar panels, and underfloor heating, exceptionally rare in a building of this age and character, making running costs highly competitive and the eco credentials a genuine selling point for the discerning holiday guest.

Outside, there is a low-maintenance courtyard perfect for an evening tipple in the heart of this timeless village. There is also a handy storage shed.

With the village pub and restaurant just a short stroll away and the beaches of the North Devon coast within comfortable reach, this extraordinary property occupies a location as special as the building itself.

A holiday let investment of genuine character, with an established income stream and the soul of something truly one of a kind. Call now to arrange your viewing!
