A former Parish church building which has been converted into a four-bedroom home has been placed on the property market in Fermanagh.

The home - which was formerly Tattykeeran Parish Church, located outside Tempo - is on sale for £455,000 with estate agents Savills.

Estate agent Megan Houston said: "This is an extremely unique opportunity to purchase a piece of history that has been immaculately converted, and we strongly recommend viewing to appreciate the standard of this property."

The church was built in 1844 on land gifted by the owner of the Colebrooke Estate.

The building served as a church for worship, baptisms, weddings and Sunday School services until the end of 1975.

The church then closed for worship and lay vacant until it was purchased by the Armstrong family in 1996.

The property was restored and extended in 2008 and was a runner-up in the BBC NI 'House of the Year' in 2011. Impartial Reporter: The kitchen of the property.The kitchen of the property. (Image: Savills)

The original church building has been transformed to incorporate a range of modern amenities while preserving its historical charm.

Within its walls, there is an entrance hall, an open plan kitchen/living area, an office, a utility room, and a WC, all seamlessly integrated while retaining distinctive original features such as gothic-style windows and doors, as well as a lofty vaulted ceiling.

Central to the conversion is the open-plan kitchen/living area, designed to offer flexibility with sliding panels for space division.

Despite its open layout, the ambiance is cozy, enhanced by the recent addition of a Burley 18kw wood-burning stove with a striking full-height black flue and granite hearth.

The contemporary galley-style kitchen boasts amenities such as a designated space for an American-style fridge/freezer, a dual Rangemaster Cooker with an extractor fan, ceramic tile splashback, white Corian worktops, an integrated dishwasher, and a Grohe chrome tap set into a built-in sink.

Accessible via a gothic-style doorway from the kitchen, the utility room provides additional storage and practical facilities.

Above the kitchen, a floating pod accessed by a spiral staircase offers a unique space, featuring a full-length feature window and a Juliette-style balcony overlooking the kitchen/living area below.

Currently utilised as a home office, this versatile space could serve various purposes including a snug, playroom, or an additional bedroom, complete with an en suite shower room and double storage cupboard.

The modern extension, characterised by sleek metal-framed double-glazed windows, timber cladding, and a zinc roof with concealed guttering, adds contemporary flair to the property.

It encompasses four spacious Japanese-style double bedrooms (three with en suites) and the main bathroom.
