Description
An extraordinary former country chapel offering considerably more space than first impressions might suggest, with magnificent proportions, exceptional natural light and beautifully appointed accommodation arranged over three floors.
Livingroom is delighted to present La Chapelle Independent, a remarkable character home situated along La Route de Maufant in rural St. Saviour, conveniently positioned close to the borders of Trinity and St. Martin. Combining the architectural charm of an early 19th-century chapel with the comfort and flexibility of contemporary living, this is a truly individual property offering an exceptional sense of space.
Behind its charming exterior lies a home of surprising scale. Beautifully restored and thoughtfully adapted, La Chapelle Independent retains its original architectural character whilst delivering voluminous living areas, soaring ceilings and an abundance of natural light. Arranged over three floors, the accommodation is considerably larger than might initially be anticipated, with every level offering something distinctive.
The centrepiece is undoubtedly the magnificent 'Great Room', an extraordinary reception space incorporating generous sitting and dining areas beneath a spectacular ceiling rising to approximately 30ft. Impressive Gothic-style ogive windows, including three facing south, flood the room with natural light, accentuating its remarkable proportions and creating an uplifting atmosphere throughout the day. Despite its impressive scale, the space feels wonderfully welcoming, equally suited to relaxed everyday living and entertaining on a grander scale.
Adjoining the principal reception room is a further breakfast area, with patio doors opening towards the garden. The generously proportioned kitchen features an electric AGA, integrated appliances and ample space for a substantial dining table. An attractive cellar nook, concealed pantry and thoughtfully incorporated storage add both character and practicality, whilst a cloakroom and utility room complete the ground-floor accommodation.
A staircase rises from the Great Room to the first-floor minstrels' gallery, an architectural feature that provides an impressive perspective over the living space below. Here, two generously sized bedrooms share a beautifully appointed bath and shower room. One bedroom is currently arranged as an additional sitting room, enjoying delightful garden views and demonstrating the versatility of the accommodation.
The second floor is devoted entirely to an exceptionally spacious principal bedroom suite. Occupying the uppermost level, this remarkable retreat is distinguished by magnificent exposed timber beams, generous proportions and a wonderful sense of privacy. With its adjoining en-suite bathroom and extensive storage, the suite is a particularly impressive feature of the property, offering a scale and character rarely encountered in a home of this nature.
An additional staircase from the entrance hall leads to a useful study or storage area, currently utilised as a hobby room, providing further flexibility.
Outside, the beautifully established gardens complement the property's distinctive character. Mature specimen shrubs, colourful planting, lawns and terraces create a series of attractive spaces to enjoy throughout the day. Rural views across neighbouring fields to the east and west enhance the peaceful setting, whilst off-street parking for two vehicles and useful external storage complete the offering.
The location is another considerable advantage. Positioned close to the meeting point of St. Saviour, Trinity and St. Martin, La Chapelle Independent enjoys the tranquillity of a rural setting whilst remaining exceptionally convenient for accessing different parts of the island.
Above all, La Chapelle Independent is a home that genuinely surprises. Its three floors of accommodation, extraordinary principal bedroom suite, magnificent south-facing reception room and sheer volume of living space combine to create something truly special. An inspiring, character-filled home offering considerably more than meets the eye and a fabulous opportunity for those seeking individuality, flexibility and exceptional proportions.
Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the remarkable space and character this property has to offer.
