An eclectic conversion of this former methodist chapel has created a most interesting home, full of character and charm. The historic building bares a date stone of 1852 and believed to have been provided by Florence Nightingale who, along with her ancestors, made Holloway their home. Retained features through the conversion include exposed stone outer walls, cutstone masonry, arched openings and beamed ceilings. The design incorporates generous ground floor living space kept open plan with kitchen, dining and sitting areas. A central stairway provides part division and is finished with decorative iron balustrade, the stairs rising to a galleried mezzanine, ideal for reading or hobbies. Individual stairs lead off to each side to two double bedrooms and with ensuite and ground floor bathroom facilities, to provide a degree of versatility.

The added benefit of off street parking and patio gardens make for an easily managed home, ideally suited for the busy professionals or perhaps as a second home or letting investment.
