A former convent dating back to the 19th century in Kelvedon is looking for loving new owners. 

The Old Convent is located in Church Street and was built in 1881 before it was meticulously converted into three private homes in 1995. 

Now, it is a spacious accommodation which has retained a wealth of charm and character. 

Through the entrance, a hall flooded with natural light is the first thing welcoming guests and residents, before leading to the stairs which grant access to the first floor. 

The well-appointed kitchen has a window and door to the rear of the house and is equipped with a butler sink and solid oak work surfaces. 

A range of wall and base units with display cabinets and drawers add to the functionality of the kitchen, while the pantry offers plenty of storage space. 

Additionally, the kitchen comes with a double oven and a dishwasher of the brand Siemens. 

In the main reception room’s showstopper are the open fireplace and wooden surround. 

Two large sash windows and a glass-panelled door lead out to the garden and add an abundance of natural light to the room, along with an additional window to the front. 

A second reception room on the ground floor offers another versatile space, which is currently used as an art studio and a cloakroom. 

Accessed via the stairs, the first-floor landing leads the way to the four spacious bedrooms of the house, as well as the family bathroom. 

All bedrooms have high ceilings, with the main bedroom benefitting from an ensuite bathroom, a built-in wardrobe and a window with stunning views of the garden. 

Two of the remaining bedrooms are double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, while the fourth room is a single room. 

The property also comes with a cellar, which offers an ideal storage space. 

The garden is predominantly laid to lawn with mature flowerbeds and shrubs, while a large paved patio offers the ideal spot to enjoy long summer nights and to entertain. 

Additionally, the home features a double-width garage with an up-and-over door. 

The Old Convent is listed at £825,000 with estate agents at Fenn Wright.
