Abandoned chapels and churches are becoming appealing renovation projects for some buyers, offering unique spaces that can be converted into homes or commercial premises, though such ventures come with risks related to planning permissions and potential renovation costs. Notable examples include Salem Chapel in Bedlinog, Wales, priced at £20,000, and the Grassmoor Methodist Church in Chesterfield, set for auction with a guide price of £115,000, both emphasizing the potential for redevelopment. In Burwell, Cambridgeshire, plans to transform the vacant former St Andrew's Church into a modern home are underway, aiming for preservation and revitalization. Additionally, the historic Dixon Court, a former Victorian school converted into flats, is up for auction at a starting price of £685,000. Meanwhile, an application to convert the Grade I listed St Mary Coslany Church in Norwich into an auction house has been proposed, reflecting the ongoing trend of repurposing religious buildings. These projects highlight a growing interest in adaptive reuse of historic properties amidst the challenges of preservation and regulatory requirements.
