A QUIRKY former schoolhouse and chapel in Herefordshire are up for sale.

The Symonds Yat property is on the market with agents Hamilton Stiller with a guide price of £1.1 million.

The agents said the old schoolhouse currently serves as a one-bedroom home with an open-plan dining kitchen plus a characterful mezzanine lounge.

It comes complete with planning permission to convert the adjoining former chapel into a four-bedroom home.

The property includes more than half an acre of land, the agents said. 

Inside, the home boasts characterful features including a timbered vaulted ceiling and a spiral staircase leading to the mezzanine, which is behind reclaimed iron balustrades sourced from the adjoining chapel, which also has a woodburning stove.

The adjoining chapel, when converted, could either serve as a separate home or extend and enhance the existing house, the agents said. 

It has permission to be converted into a four bedroom home, all with en-suite facilities, plus an open-plan kitchen and living area, and a mezzanine area.

There is an old graveyard within the grounds, as well as a paddock which the agents said could serve as a glamping site, subject to planning.
