With the dappled northerly light coming through the high windows, splashing onto the floorboards this quaint former weatherboard church would make a fabulous artist studio or perhaps an occasional tranquil retreat for those seeking respite from all the hurly-burly of the city and suburbia. Set to the lower side of the 1012m2 block is the original Wesleyan Methodist Church, which was built in the early 1880s, with the last service being held in 1973. While this heritage-listed building has served its community well through the generations it is now in need of some restoration to bring it back to its former glory. The sunny hamlet of Collinsvale is just 12kms from all the services and shops of Glenorchy and approximately 40minutes to the CBD. Collinsvale was originally known as Sorell Creek which was changed by the early German settlers to Bismarck in honor of the creator of modern Germany, Chancellor Otto Von Bismarck: with the advent of WW1 the name was again changed, this time to honor Colonel David Collins, first Lieutenant of Van Diemen's Land.
