🎉 From Impulse Buy to Life-Changing Experience! 🎉
Meet Dez Thomas, the man who turned a spontaneous chapel purchase into a life-transforming project. Located in Llanrug, Gwynedd, this isn’t just any chapel – it’s Capel Mawr, a historic gem dating back to 1798.
Dez’s journey with this chapel wasn’t smooth sailing. Soon after he bought it, disaster struck—a massive fire left him unable to return for 18 months. But, with determination and a bit of carpentry genius, Dez used his skills to restore the chapel, breathing new life into its storied walls.
Fast forward to today: The chapel is not only restored but thriving as a unique holiday accommodation! Alongside his sons, Dez has transformed the space into a destination that’s been a hit, especially post-Covid, with revenues peaking at £117K!
But, life’s calling Dez for another adventure. While he’s loved sharing this incredible space with guests, he’s ready to pass the baton. Capel Mawr is up for grabs at nearly £1m, promising anyone the chance to own a slice of Welsh history and an incredible opportunity.
The chapel offers two stunning apartments – one boasting a Manhattan-inspired loft feel and the other oozing Victorian elegance with modern touches. Think grand open spaces, high ceilings, and gorgeous original features that ‘photos can’t even do justice’!
Ever the visionary, Dez isn’t done dreaming. He’s eyeing new projects like turning an old helicopter into an Airbnb and offering glamping experiences with yurts and shepherd huts. Plus, he’s busy refitting a coffee shop on Anglesey!
Describing this journey, Dez reflected, “It’s been fantastic sharing the properties with visitors. I’m very attached to the place, and I’ll be sad to let it go.”
Capel Mawr now awaits its next chapter. Who’s ready to take the plunge? 😊🏰
