Description

Former St Mungo’s Episcopal Church & Hall, Alexandria

A rare and remarkable development opportunity in the heart of Alexandria, the former St Mungo’s Episcopal Church and Hall presents an exceptional chance to transform a striking B-listed landmark into a boutique residential scheme. Set within a generous plot of 0.473 acres and positioned just a short walk from local shops, transport links, schools, and everyday amenities, this is a site with both architectural presence and strong lifestyle appeal.

Comprising a former church with planning for three townhouses and a former hall with planning for a detached bungalow, this flexible development site can be purchased as one complete package or divided into two separate projects, depending on purchaser requirements.

On completion of all works for both church and hall the site has a potential value of £1.3 million. Subject to the new owner's configuration, specifications and market conditions.
