For Sale4 Bedroom Semi-Detached House in Rising Lane, Knowle, Solihull, Warwickshire, B93£1,200,000

An immaculately presented home within this conversion of a former convent close to all of the amenities Lapworth, Dorridge and Knowle offer. This converted convent was once the home of the Poor Clares nuns. The convent was founded in 1850 by six sisters from Bruges and was once visited by Cardinal John Henry Newman. The convent closed in 2011 and was converted into this wonderfully unique residential property. The Purse is a beautiful conversion with many character features, including grand ceiling heights and historic architecture. The property is named after the 'miracle' silk purse containing ten gold sovereigns, which was discovered in the garden and for the chapel, which you will find at the end of the walled garden. In brief, the property comprises an entrance hall opening out to a beautiful open-plan kitchen and living dining room which is sure to be the hub of this home. The kitchen area has a range of wall and base units beneath a Silestone worktop and a central island with a breakfast bar with integrated appliances, including a Miele dishwasher, fridge/freezer, oven and combination oven/microwave with warming draw, Gaggenau hob, wine cooler and Quooker hot tap. There is ample space for a dining table and seating area. The ground floor has an excellent sitting room with double doors to the rear gardens, useful utility and a cloakroom. The upper floors mirror the exacting standard of finish to that on the ground, having a desirable principal bedroom suite with en suite shower room, three further bedrooms all of a good size and two bathrooms (one of which is en suite). Outside is a beautifully landscaped walled garden, well stocked with herbaceous borders full of colour. The chapel within the garden is a lovely feature and gives a real sense of the property's former history. This space could be used in various ways. There is a double garage and two designated parking spaces.
