The Chapel On The Mount, Norbury, Shropshire, SY13 4HT

A truly unique property situated in a beautiful rural position, enjoying lovely far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.

Description The Chapel is a truly stunning and individual former chapel, which has been painstakingly restored, carefully retaining the properties period character while introducing a contemporary and highly considered modern finish.

As its name suggests, the property occupies an elevated position, enjoying uninterrupted views across open countryside.

A striking original entrance door opens into a porch where original tiles have been thoughtfully reinstated, immediately setting the tone for the quality and attention to detail throughout the rest of the house.

Upon entering the principal living space, the scale and proportions are immediately apparent, with impressive double height ceilings creating a wonderful sense of volume.

The space is enhanced by American black walnut flooring with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, alongside beautifully restored English oak windows.

A bespoke and highly distinctive central gas fireplace provides a natural focal point.

The room has been cleverly arranged to create a series of defined yet flowing areas, including a raised sitting and entertaining space, an open plan reception area, and a versatile vestibule suitable for use as additional seating, a study or a music space.

The kitchen is equally impressive, designed on a bespoke basis with a central curved island and a comprehensive range of fitted cupboards and units, complemented by a useful adjoining utility room.

A striking curved glass staircase rises to the first floor, where a glass bridge leads to an area currently utilised as an office, perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the far-reaching views.

There are three bedrooms, two of which benefit from en suite facilities, each room offering its own sense of character and individuality.

A particularly appealing aspect of the design is the thoughtful use of contrast, with a light filled reception space complemented by a darker, more atmospheric kitchen, creating a balanced and cohesive aesthetic.

This theme continues through to the bathrooms, where carefully considered tiling details further enhance the overall finish.

Externally, the property is approached via ample private gravelled parking and sits centrally within its plot.

A gravel pathway leads around the house and to the front entrance through a charming rose walk.
