Some properties simply cannot be replicated, and this extraordinary residence is undoubtedly one of them.
Originally built in 1871 as Freeling's first church, St Peter's has been an integral part of the local community for more than 150 years. Over the decades, its beautiful walls have welcomed different religious groups, with the final service held in 2007.
Today, this remarkable heritage-listed landmark has been thoughtfully transformed into an exceptional three-bedroom home, seamlessly combining its historic charm with modern comfort.

From the moment you arrive you will be captivated by the striking façade, beautifully established cottage gardens and unmistakable character of this former place of worship. It is a property that makes an impression before you even step through the front door.

Inside, the grandeur of the original building remains beautifully evident, with soaring ceilings, original floorboards and timeless architectural proportions creating a warm and inviting sense of space.
The master bedroom is privately positioned on the ground floor and enjoys the comfort of its own split-system air conditioning, while bedrooms two and three are cleverly located on the mezzanine level above, offering flexibility and separation for family members or guests.

At the heart of the home, the impressive open-plan kitchen and living area provides a wonderful space to gather, entertain and create lasting memories. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring stainless-steel appliances, gas cooktop, electric oven, abundant storage and a generous island bench that forms the centerpiece of this inviting space.
The adjoining living area embraces the character of the original church, with beautiful floorboards, pressed metal ceilings, cathedral windows and cosy combustion heating creating an ambience that is both welcoming and wonderfully unique.
A beautifully appointed contemporary bathroom provides modern convenience, complemented by a separate additional toilet.

And then there are the features that simply cannot be recreated...
The original church bell remains fully functional, offering an extraordinary connection to the building's past and a wonderful reminder of the generations who have passed through these doors.
Outside, the original church outhouse has been thoughtfully utilized as a laundry, a wonderfully unique feature that blends the property's history with modern practicality.

Surrounding the home are beautiful cottage gardens, creating a peaceful and private setting with established plantings, a productive vegetable patch, herb garden and fruit trees. There is something wonderfully wholesome about stepping outside to pick fresh herbs, gather produce from the garden or simply enjoy the tranquillity of this enchanting property.

A large garage at the rear of the property provides additional storage or workshop space with rear access to secure parking for cars, boats or trailers.
