Step back in time with this remarkable Gothic Revival church, originally built in 1908 and meticulously maintained ever since. The original front hall holds official recognition as a Category 2 Historic Place, celebrating its heritage and architectural importance. The rear section of the building, however, is not subject to this classification, offering greater flexibility for redevelopment or creative use. Sitting proudly on an approximately 1,012 m2 section, this unique property blends character and practicality. Zoned Residential with land use designated for Religious Purposes, it comes complete with modern comforts including two 25,000 litre water tanks, a heat pump for year round comfort, and a layout that merges historic charm with functionality. Land Use: The current Religious Purposes classification allows activities linked to worship, education, and community assembly. Any alternative use may require council consent under the district plan and the Resource Management Act. There is potential to apply for a change of land use through council, subject to their guidelines and approval process. With its grand design, strong street presence, and proximity to local amenities, the possibilities here are wide open. Whether your vision is to create a destination venue, a boutique business hub, or a revitalised community gathering place, this property provides a one of a kind foundation to bring your ideas to life. Do not let this opportunity fade into the past. Arrange your viewing today and see how this extraordinary building could shape your next chapter.
