Churches For Sale! Church conversions and unconverted churches & chapels for sale!

Churches are great for converting to a really unique and unusual property. You can list your church/chapel for sale or search for a converted or unconverted church/chapel to buy. Unconverted churches are obviously far cheaper, but do allow you to put your own mark on - however, they can be a lot work, complex to do and expensive!

What to look out for when buying a church or church/chapel conversion:

• Planning permission: Does the church you want to buy have planning permission to be converted into a dwelling?


• Churchyard Problems: Churchyards are usually public, if you buy a church, do you still have to allow public access to the graveyard and if so, how close is it to your future home?


• Grade 1/2 listed: Many churches are protected by Grade 1/2 listing restrictions, this could mean costly renovations that must be sympathetic to the rest of the structure. Is the church you are about to buy Grade 1 or 2 listed?
• Damp: Damp problems can be a different ball game when it comes to a church. Make sure you get a specialist damp survey performed as the remedy could be more expensive than standard solutions
• Local Area: Not everyone approves of their local church or chapel converted to a residential dwelling by outsiders. Make sure you experience the area first before expecting to 'settle in' wias the new neighbours..

What to include when selling a church:

• Condition: Make sure you give a good description of the condition so buyers are aware


• Potential: Highlight the potential for the church, include plans if you have planning permission to give the potential buyer an idea of what it could be like.


• History & Architecture: Many churches and chapels have interesting architecture and colourful histories. Research this and add it to the description to create an engaging and informative advert


• Photos: Add as many photos as you can to provide as much insight into the church or chapel as possible. Include photos of restoration and highlight design features.
