Former church An exceptional opportunity to acquire Kilmichael Glassary Church, an attractive B-listed former Church of Scotland building with planning permission granted for conversion into a unique three-bedroom home. Set within a peaceful rural location on the outskirts of Kilmichael Glassary, the property offers an exciting opportunity to create a characterful and highly individual residence while retaining many of the building's original architectural features. Constructed in traditional stone, the church is particularly impressive internally, with beautiful stained-glass windows, intricate timber detailing and a spacious former sanctuary providing an outstanding focal point for the proposed conversion. The existing accommodation includes an entrance vestibule, storeroom, sanctuary and additional office space. To the north of the churchyard wall, the property benefits from an area of ground which could provide space for a private garden and parking, with potential for a garage, subject to the necessary consents. Mains electricity is connected, while mains water is available within the public road. Argyll and Bute Council has indicated a willingness, in principle, to grant servitude rights for water and drainage through the churchyard, with the purchaser responsible for securing the necessary rights and arranging all connection and installation works. Planning permission and listed building consent have been granted for the residential conversion, providing a rare opportunity to transform this historic building into a distinctive three-bedroom home. The property is B-listed, with planning permission and listed building consent granted for the conversion of the church to residential accommodation under planning references 23/01367/PP and 23/01369/LIB. Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries with Argyll and Bute Council regarding the approved proposals and any conditions attached to the permissions. The churchyard itself is owned by Argyll and Bute Council, while the property includes land to the north of the churchyard wall. The purchaser will be responsible for arranging water and drainage connections and securing any necessary servitude rights.
