A historic church with planning permission to be converted into a family home has gone on the market for £150,000.
The property dates back to 1752 and is smack bang in the middle of a cemetery – but if you can overlook the potential ghouls, this property is pretty special.
With stained glass windows, high ceilings, and a stunning countryside location, Roxburgh Church has all the potential for a showstopping home.

Planning permission has already been approved, which would see the ground floor transformed entirely, with the main section of the church acting as a kitchen and living/dining space, two bathrooms, a snug, a laundry room and a bedroom.
Meanwhile, a first floor would be created with room for three en suite bedrooms.
The church is nestled in the heart of the charming countryside village of Roxburgh, in Kelso, Scotland, as reported by Luxury Property News.
The church has gone through a “rigorous planning application process”, which includes energy efficient elements such as air source heating, fully insulated internal walls and secondary glazing – while still retaining the heritage of the building by protecting the pulpit, original door openings and stunning stained glass.
The listing, held by Hastings Legal, reads: “With full planning in place for conversion into a family home, Roxburgh Church is a wonderful find for those ready to start their renovation journey in the Scottish Borders, and breathe new life into this historic building.”
The church is a category B listed building and has Listed consent, and prospective buyers are advised to prepare proof of funds for both the purchase of the church building, as well as the renovation works.
