Have you ever dreamed of living somewhere truly extraordinary? This striking partial church-to home conversion offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure a character-filled property with endless potential. With the current owners preparing to relocate, this remarkable residence is ready for its next chapter. Located just 13 minutes from Oamaru and enjoying peaceful sea views, the property offers privacy, space, and the potential for full self-sufficiency - all set on a beautifully positioned 2023m2 section. The thoughtfully converted portion of the building provides a warm and welcoming living space, while the original sanctuary remains untouched and ready for transformation. This presents an exciting opportunity to open the existing living areas into the church itself, further showcasing its timeless architectural beauty - including stunning Rimu flooring, soaring arched ceilings, and captivating stained-glass windows. A wood burner in the kitchen-dining area creates cosy warmth throughout the home, flowing seamlessly into a sun-filled lounge. The bathroom includes a shower-over-bath and vanity, with the convenience of a separate toilet and separate laundry. Upstairs, the existing bedroom is accessed via stairs from the lounge, with excellent scope to expand - whether by adding further bedrooms or creating a striking mezzanine floor within the sanctuary space. The tandem garage, complete with two utility rooms, provides flexible options for a home office, workshop, studio, or hobby area. Originally constructed in 1935 and opened in 1937, the church faithfully served its community until the 1980s. Recent upgrades - including a new kitchen with dishwasher - enhance everyday comfort while preserving the building's integrity and charm. This is a rare and inspiring opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind home within an iconic and character-rich building. Properties like this seldom become available - don't miss your chance to make it your own. Viewing by appointment.
