1 Bedroom Character Property

FORMER CHURCH WITH PLANNING PERMISSION! 

A unique chance to acquire an impressive and characterful former chapel, benefiting from planning permission for conversion into 11 self-contained residential apartments, comprising 3 two-bedroom and 8 one-bedroom units. Situated in the heart of the beautiful Rhondda Valley, this landmark property combines architectural charm, historical significance, and outstanding redevelopment potential.

Heritage & Character

Originally built in 1870, the English Congregational Chapel was established to serve the English-speaking community drawn to the Rhondda during the rapid expansion of the coal industry. Many original features remain intact, including a three-sided gallery, historic pews, pulpit, and organ, preserving the building’s rich heritage and unique character. The chapel ceased religious use in 2020 and underwent a comprehensive historic building survey in 2024.

Occupying a prominent corner position at the junction of Church Road and Church Street in Ton Pentre, the property benefits from excellent visibility and accessibility, making it ideally suited for residential redevelopment. The location offers convenient access to local amenities, transport links, and the wider Rhondda Valley area.
