17 Cunliffe Street, Macclesfield, SA 5153

It creates a striking silhouette with unwritten potential. A storied former church on a sprawling 1330sqm corner parcel holding incredible promise for the forward-thinking buyer.

Beyond the distinctive rendered shell is a simple layout: a generous, light-filled front hall with a raised stage and grand Gothic-style windows, and to the rear, a smaller basic hall, home to a charming fireplace.

Together, it's the honesty of the circa 1890s structure that makes it such an enticing, yet far from conventional proposal.

A future that will need to respect the building, the historic township it belongs to, and every necessary planning parameter - for the right buyer, that's all part of the appeal.

While it's not heritage listed, a journey of passion and patience could propel it into a beautifully bespoke residence, boutique bed and breakfast, or creative studio space – even a blend of all the above – subject to the necessary council consents.

And the property's pretty boundaries also play their part. Illuminated by ornate coach lights, the nearby footbridge creek crossing forms the picturesque edge to this landmark landholding – while the church grounds hold plenty of scope for family adventures or a sympathetic new landscape, with majestic pines adding definition to the long narrow block.

Location-wise, Macclesfield offers a quiet main street with a pair of country pubs – one unrivalled when it comes to South Australia's 'Best Snitty' – and easy proximity to Echunga, Strathalbyn and Mount Barker.

Enjoying the idyllic surrounds of the Adelaide Hills and Fleurieu wine regions, around 35 minutes from The Tollgate and 30 from McLaren Vale, this is an open book opportunity for those with the vision and ambition to take a vintage somewhere respectfully new.

The future beckons from a compelling piece of Macclesfield history.
