Property description
PETERS and CO are instructed to sell this FORMER CHAPEL which is presently used as a useful and large Storage Building but which is suitable for re-development and would be ideal for conversion into self-contained flats or alternatively, into office/retail accommodation but these uses would be subject to obtaining Planning and Building Regulation Approval in respect thereof. The former chapel building is set back from Heol-y-Neuadd with enclosed concrete surfaced forecourt with stone built and faced forecourt wall surmounted by ornamental railings. Gated concrete surfaced pathways provide access around the former chapel with rear lawn and garden and all being enclosed by stone built and faced boundary walls. The former chapel was constructed in 1904 being of solid stone construction with stucco rendered elevations and with mainly the original timber windows (although uPVC framed replacement window has been installed to the front) and with slated saddle roof structure. The organ is still in situ and there is a covered baptism pool.
The former chapel is situated within the centre of the village of Tumble where there are retail shops, banks, primary school, take away restaurants, licensed clubs and Day/Leisure Centre. It is within 2mls distance of the expanding centre of Cross Hands where wider range of facilities are available including Retail shops, Library, Post Office, Dentist and Medical Centre, cinema and several multi-national superstores. At Cross Hands there is ease of access on to the A48/M4 dual carriageway with good road links to the towns of Carmarthen (approx.11mls), Llanelli (approx.9mls), Ammanford (approx.7mls), (Llandeilo approx.10mls) and the City of Swansea (approx.18mls).
