Mitchell, Truro, TR8

ELEGANT VILLAGE LIVING IN A CONVERTED HISTORIC CHAPEL WITH STYLE, SPACE, AND CHARACTER.

The Property
The Chapel has been carefully renovated to preserve its historic character, showcasing original arched windows, exposed beams, and vaulted ceilings throughout. The spacious main living area features a wood-burning stove, offering a warm and inviting centrepiece. The open-plan kitchen and breakfast room combines modern fittings with generous workspace. Its layout supports both everyday living and entertaining. A mezzanine level above the main space provides a flexible area—ideal as a study, reading corner, or additional lounge. There are four bedrooms arranged across different levels, offering flexibility and privacy. The principal bedroom is located on the upper floor and features an en-suite bathroom, built-in storage, and access to the adjacent family bathroom. A second double bedroom sits on the ground floor with its own en-suite, ideal for guests or multigenerational living. The third bedroom is positioned on the mezzanine level, making it a bright and airy space—perfect as a bedroom, home office, or creative studio. The fourth bedroom is also on the ground floor, opposite the utility area, and serves well as a guest room, study, or hobby space. The home’s split-level layout enhances separation between living and sleeping zones, ensuring comfort and functionality throughout. Additional highlights include original chapel doors and thoughtfully integrated lighting. Solar panels, added in 2023, improve energy efficiency without compromising the building’s unique charm.
