Place of Worship
A rare opportunity to acquire a former Place of Worship, located within the centre of the desirable village of Aston-on-Trent, offering the potential for alternative use, or redevelopment, subject to obtaining planning consent.
The site originally accommodated a Wesleyan Methodist Church, opened in 1829, together with two adjoining cottages, which were then demolished in 1966. A replacement Church was constructed and opened in 1967. The building is of timber construction with brick gables under a shallow-pitch felted roof. The building has timber framed windows, and a gas-fired central heating system.
There is ramped and stepped access from The Green.
Internally, there is an entrance lobby providing access to a kitchen, accessible WC, and the Chapel. The Chapel is open plan with carpeted floors, central heating radiators to the perimeter and fire exit door to the rear. The kitchen is part fitted with base units, stainless steel sink and drainer.
The property is located off The Green within the centre of the village of Aston-on-Trent. The village lies approximately 7 miles south-east of Derby city centre, and is a desirable residential location affording a range of amenities and benefiting from easy accessibility to the A50, the M1/M6 link road. The Green falls within the villages conservation area.
The gross internal area (GIA) is 694 sq.ft (64.47 sq.m) comprising -
40 sq.ft (3.74 sq.m).
31 sq.ft (2.9 sq.m).
153 sq.ft (14.25 sq.m).
