A spooky converted Gothic church has gone on the market – just in time for Halloween.
The impressive property can be found in Kensal Green, London, and has been transformed into a stunning four-bedroom house with over 6,000 sq ft of space, available at £5.95 million. A bargain.
Following on with the ghostly theme, the property is creepily close to Kensal Green Cemetery – so you can fill your evenings with spooky sightings and scary walks.
Known as Kenmont Gardens, the former church has original features preserved throughout – from elegant internal arches to gorgeous stained-glass windows.
Additionally, at the northern end of the building, you can marvel at the conical-roofed turret which forms the entrance hall and bespoke bronze spiral staircase which leads to the galleried study above.
The upper floor also features two bedrooms, each with en suite bathrooms and free-standing baths.
Meanwhile, the master bedroom can be found on the second floor, accessed through a dressing area and with a vaulted ceiling and skylights providing ample natural light.
There is also a nursery connected to the room, if you’re not too scared to bring a child into this terrifying home.
From the hall, make your way across the Italian-tiled floor to the pantry, reception space – which includes a custom-made kitchen by designer Rupert Bevan, dining and both formal and informal living areas – and the guest WC.
The property might be old but it has modern finishes including blackened oak-parquet flooring that extends to the ground level, with underfloor heating.
There is also a fireplace with a beautiful herringbone-brick back and honed-marble surround in the reception space to keep you warm – which leads on to one of the guest bedrooms which features an en suite shower room and access to the garden.
There is also a versatile room to the right, which is currently being used as a gym.
The home is eerily quiet, located at the juncture of two no-through roads, and the courtyard has five access points through towering double doors.
There are plenty of amenities nearby, with Chamberlayne Road within easy reach, offering a selection of independent cafés, restaurants, delis, pubs and shops – including a butcher, greengrocer, specialist bakery and a popular London florist.
So, if you have a few millions lying around this autumn, this could be your new home of dreams (or nightmares).
