Unique Opportunity Exists To Purchase Stylish, Renovated Church In Seaside Suburb
Constructed around 1926, this architectural marvel reflects the timeless allure of English Gothic style churches. Originally designed to host around 200 worshippers, the Methodist church exuded an air of understated elegance. In subsequent years, it served as a gathering place for Scouts SA. Today, this remarkable structure has been transformed into a warm and inviting family residence, meticulously preserving its original grandeur. From the soaring cathedral ceilings to the sturdy brick walls and intricate timber mouldings, every aspect of the building's structural integrity has been lovingly maintained.
Designed with today's family in mind, the home offers open plan living and a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, granite tops and ample counter space with double patio sliding doors leading to the full length verandah, your own piece of paradise for morning coffees or hosting memorable gatherings. The master bedroom is also downstairs, with a walk-in robe and stunning ensuite, glass bifold doors leading to the rear yard.
The incorporation of double-glazed windows not only enhances the visual allure of the property, it also contributes to energy efficiency, providing insulation against external elements. This means you can relish the beauty of the changing seasons without compromising on comfort, making every moment spent in this unique home a truly delightful experience.
Upstairs houses a second living space, 2 bedrooms, both with built in robes and a family bathroom, providing ample space for relaxation and rejuvenation. Neutral and modern colour scheme throughout with easy to maintaiin tiled floor downstairs and restored timber floorboards upstairs. No expense spared here.
