Welcome to this distinctive half-acre property in Castle Forbes Bay, surrounded by lush paddocks and orchards. This flat parcel of land boasts a beautifully renovated dual-living home, a spacious garage/workshop, and the original 'All Saints' Catholic Church, making it a rare gem with remarkable potential.
The first residence, positioned at the rear of the home, is bright, airy, and tastefully modernised with a stylish new kitchen and bathroom. French doors open out to a private covered deck, perfect for outdoor relaxation, overlooking the fully fenced backyard, a tranquil, private space ideal for families and pets. The spacious lounge, complete with a reverse-cycle air conditioner, provides year-round comfort, while a thoughtfully designed study nook offers a quiet corner for work or study. The well-planned kitchen makes the most of the available space, leading to a master bedroom located privately at the back of the home.
The front section of the home provides separate 3-4 bedroom accommodation, making it ideal for independent family members or rental income. This part of the property has its own entrance, lounge, kitchen, and updated bathroom, along with two additional showers and two separate toilets. With its own access, this area once served as seasonal accommodation, making it an excellent option for guests or tenants.
With both residences together, the property offers a flexible layout with five bedrooms, a sunroom, a study, four bathrooms, two kitchens and two living areas.
Next to the residence is a solid concrete-block garage/workshop, perfect for hobbies, a business, or secure storage. Ideal for mechanics, woodworkers, or vintage car enthusiasts, this facility offers generous space to house vehicles, a boat, or even a camper-keeping everything sheltered and secure.
One of the property's most unique features is the original 'All Saints' Catholic Church, an open-plan space filled with charm and character. Featuring beautiful timber floors, arched windows, and a vaulted ceiling, this historic building could be used as a venue, creative space, or potential conversion. The timeless beauty of the church's architecture adds immense appeal and versatility.
This flat, easily accessible property includes a large gravel carpark and a grassy backyard with fruit trees, hazelnuts and berries, offering a rural lifestyle with self-sustainability potential. Just 15 minutes from Huonville, the property is close to primary and high schools, childcare facilities, supermarkets, medical services, a local pool, playgrounds, and more-combining the benefits of rural privacy with convenient access to essential amenities.
With the potential to lease each area independently, this property offers multiple income streams. Whether you rent out the dual-living sections, lease the garage, or transform the church, the possibilities are extensive.
