Description:

Set in the absolute best strolling range of the lovely North Pennines, only a short stroll from the celebrated High Force Waterfall, this dazzling house of prayer transformation with its noteworthy building fabric and current inside outline is a genuine Teesdale gem. The first windows of the nineteenth century building have been revived, surrounding emotional perspectives of the dales to make an open and rich self-providing food occasion house for seven visitors. It has a huge and completely prepared kitchen, a comfortable lounge, four agreeable rooms, two en-suits and a rich family washroom. The remaking, outlined by Evolution Design, has quite recently as of late been done.

Noteworthy elements given quick care

As the current building was in a poor condition of deterioration and had been empty for a long time, the point of the recreation undertaking was to breath life into this one of a kind property back and to empower guests to value the history and nearby structural engineering while giving a delightful domain to investigate the encompass wide open and its tremendous scope of exercises.

At the season of securing, the property had supported impressive water entrance because of its condition of neglect and not being kept up. Because of its uncovered area, solid winds and driving precipitation, a large portion of the inside completions had been harmed severely, other than the fundamental rooftop had weakened gravely and the rooftop rafters required substitution.

Prior to any plan or outline had been drafted, the first assignments were teaching preparatory repairs for the harmed rooftop and board the windows and ways to keep any further water harm. When this had been finished the undertaking group assessed the accessible space to build up the sort and amount of offices that would suit best the size and area of the Chapel.

New mezzanine floor

The insertion of another mezzanine floor took into consideration arranging of three rooms upstairs and the kitchen/eating range, the lounge, the washroom and the fourth room on the ground floor. Our methodology was to give arrangements that addressed the brief, however did not change the memorable points of interest or quintessence of the Chapel. The primary corridor was the center component that gives the Chapel its vibe of space and with its itemized effortlessness it turned into the heart of the proposed outline.

Supplement the character of the building

Present day, in vogue but in the setting of the area and its history – these were the principle criteria for outlining the inside of the new occasion bungalow. We needed to make a space that was present day but then had a customary dialect that would supplement the notable way of the Chapel and engage an extensive variety of visitors. This was reflected in our decision of furniture and completions. All materials and outline had been considered in the setting of the character and appearance of the current building and the Teesdale vernacular. Conventional materials were proposed to guarantee the plan regards the character of the scene and the current structures.

As the heart of any home the kitchen and eating space was expected to be open and splendid, exploiting the Gothic windows and the wonderful perspectives of the encompass scene. The point was to keep a conventional vibe by holding the rooftop trusses with a characteristic completion. The kitchen units were styled to keep an unattractive country feel, which is surrounded by the element divider tiles. By utilizing customary tiles to cover the full tallness of the back divider supplemented the liberal roof stature and sentiment space.

Cutting edge and agreeable occasion cabin

Being situated in the very heart of the Upper Teesdale, the Chapel is an impeccable area for extraordinary occasions spent strolling, cycling, climbing, angling or simply unwinding with a book and a glass of wine before the log burner. Set high on the moving slopes, the Chapel offers peace and calm, yet Middleton-in-Teesdale with shops, eateries and bars is only a couple of minutes away.
