From the outside, the stunning property looks just like a traditional church from the Worcestershire countryside.

But on the inside, the 19th century property – named Chancel House – is the picture of modern living.

Honouring its original purpose, the former church’s stained glass windows remain intact, and doorways throughout the property are arch-shaped.
