RISBURY Methodist Chapel is a redundant freehold Methodist chapel situated in the centre of this north Herefordshire village, together with a separate leasehold burial ground. It comes to the market upon the kind instructions of the Shropshire and Marches Methodist Circuit.
The property comprises a detached redundant freehold chapel of brick construction under a tiled roof.
The chapel's approximate measurements are 11m x 5.7m. The ceiling height is approximated at 4.8m.
Within the leasehold grounds there are various graves and attention is drawn to any prospective purchaser to terms and conditions contained within the contracts and lease.
A pre-planning application was made to Herefordshire Council on April 30, 2015 for the conversion of the chapel to a residential dwelling.
The application received a favourable reply in which they stated that there would be no objections to the conversion of the building into a residential dwelling subject to a full planning application being made.
A copy of the councils letter is available for inspection at the agent's office or displayed on their website.
The burial grounds are to be sold Leasehold with the benefit of a 999 year lease at a peppercorn rent. There will be various covenants contained within the lease which are contained within the lease which are contained within the legal documents. The Risbury Graveyard is now closed for further burials.
The chapel is available for sale by formal tender. A copy of the contract and associated documentation is available at mfgsolicitors.com/auction-packs/.
Prospective purchasers should carry out their own enquiries to Herefordshire Council and other authorities before making an offer for the chapel.
All offers should be made on the required forms direct to the agent’s office by noon on March 15.
