Property details

Lofty ambitions in a converted church

One of Newtown's most unique homes, this designer haven is spread over three levels in a boutique church conversion tucked away in a quiet pocket between Erskineville village and South King Street's dining hub. Facing north and designed to harness the sunshine, the Torrens-title home integrates the striking ecclesiastical features of the former c1901 church with exposed timber trusses and soaring cathedral ceilings that enhance the sense of space. A hidden world with views over the heritage rooftops, this incredibly peaceful and private residence features a mezzanine style living and entertaining level opening to a sunny roof deck while a lower-level living space opens to a suntrap Zen-like courtyard. A three-bedroom layout offers superb flexibility of space while energy-saving design elements maximise light and airflow with louvre windows, a bank of skylights framing a tranquil treetop outlook and a 3.2kW solar power system. With Newtown High School of the Performing Arts and Newtown Public School around the corner and surrounded by pocket parks, it's just 400m to Erskineville village and 300m to King Street's cafes, restaurants and the famed Vegan Mile.
