Escape the hustle and bustle with this countryside retreat, ideal for those seeking peace and tranquility.
Sitting just one block from all the amenity of the township is this charming, original Methodist church circa 1892 – the oldest church building in Trentham, now repurposed as a residence and offering an elevated living experience where sacred history meets contemporary design. Set amongst divine parkland gardens, this home holds townscape and streetscape significance in Trentham while offering a quiet and tranquil environment mere steps to the town's retail Centre. The simple timber structure sits on a vast approximately 1814m2 block and includes original lancet windows along the length of the building, Baltic pine lined walls and ceilings, entry vestibule and stained-glass feature windows throughout. Enter the main hall and you are immediately struck by the soaring 4.5m vaulted ceilings that create a heavenly sense of scale rarely found. A spacious living and dining area with lovely original timber floors and awash with light, provides glimpses of the abundant gardens from every window. A set of stairs leads to the mezzanine bedroom, whilst also providing plentiful storage. Below the bedroom you will find the combined bathroom / laundry offering all the functionality and luxury required of modern living. Floor to ceiling tile, shower over a deep soaking tub, period vanity and toilet share the space with generous laundry footprint easily concealed in future if desired. Located in the 1948 Sunday school addition to the building, the recently updated kitchen enjoys historic charm with original exposed brick chimney and gas heater, Baltic pine floorboards, timber benchtops with generous shaker profile cabinetry, and a stunning Belling 900mm dual fuel oven and cooktop – every master chef's dream! Adjacent is a separate original washroom with toilet, while a further addition provides a light filled study / work from home office. But it is the celestial gardens that really are the jewel in this property's crown. The red brick driveway draws you through the garden with mature and unique trees providing the kind of magical canopy that only time can provide. Be captivated by the variety of maples, birch, and oak together with weeping elm, box elder, dogwoods, paper bark and range of cool climate plantings such as hydrangeas, camellia, and hebes. This is a seasonal garden; abounding in bulbs and tree blossoms in spring, roses and cottage garden plants in summer, and array of flowering hellebore and fragrant daphne in winter, not to mention a kaleidoscope of red, orange, and yellow foliage in Autumn. The rear garden includes an 8m x 5 m two car garage with pull up door and concrete floor, together with a separate 3.2m x 7m garden shed – perfect for all your gardening tools. The property features an original Federation wire fence with church design fence posts, and despite its proximity to the township enjoys a sense of privacy and seclusion behind visionary, mature dogwood, japanese maples, berberis plantings across the verge. This is a heavenly home; wonderfully curated and lovingly tended to across three decades and now presents a rare opportunity for a new owner to embrace the spirit of the past, reimagined for your future.
