A former Methodist chapel in South Cumbria could be yours for £28,000.
The Grade II-listed chapel in Garsdale, near Sedbergh, is set to go to auction on May 28.
With a guide price of just £28,000, the building dates from 1841.
It is built from coursed sandstone rubble with a stone slate roof and the 538sq ft former Primitive Methodist chapel still contains many of its original features, including simple wood-panelled pews and a raised pulpit.
It requires renovation and could be suitable for a variety of future uses including residential accommodation, subject to planning consent.
Christopher Theocharides, senior commercial surveyor at BTG Eddisons Property Auctions, said: “Former chapels and other historic buildings like this often generate interest at auction because they offer buyers something a bit different from standard residential or development opportunities.
“This historic property does require renovation, but it has clear potential for a range of new uses, and its low guide price and undisputed charm mark it out as a potential bargain and we are expecting lots of interest.”
BTG Eddisons Property Auctions is a national auction business formed by uniting the regional brands Pugh, SDL Property Auctions, Mark Jenkinson and Network Auctions.
