Description

Two prized homes of epic architectural significance, amalgamated as one, to create the distinguished property address known as ‘The Moorooduc Church’. Set on a level 2053m2 allotment (approx.) and bordered by 40-acres of stunning neighbouring farmland where the daily country atmosphere can be enjoyed without the toil.

Originally built by the Presbyterians in 1863, ‘The Moorooduc Church’ has been lovingly restored with impeccable taste, using an intricate balance of traditional, period features, and contemporary design elements, inspiring an air of intimacy and raw, whimsical romance. Allow yourself to give into the mesmerising and ageless beauty that’s evident in the detailed, re-engineered brilliance of this sacred space.

Once an integral part of Moorooduc’s history, the church originally served as a place of worship for the Moorooduc community whilst also doubling as the town's first school.

Now, nestled behind automatic and secure wrought iron gates, enveloped in quaint landscaped gardens and currently operating as an Airbnb holiday accommodation destination. This beautifully presented church delivers stylings of soft, airy, feminine and refined elegance, much like that inspired by French Country design. The church is a popular B&B for tourist escaping for a Peninsula getaway with handsome financial returns.

An enchanting and rustic rear yard intricately integrates the breathtaking church with the recently constructed, bold and charming family home; delicately infusing complimentary design elements, ensuring a harmonious continuity.

Concealed behind a private fence, a vast and open Mediterranean outdoor garden and entertaining area awaits to greet you, surrendering an elemental array of raw and inviting colours and textural plays. A space oozing with elegance and a relaxed, rustic charm.

Entering the family home, a neutral explosion of textures swaddles your soul, as you move through the spacious living, saturated in natural light. The well thought-out and flexible floorplan ensures additional bedrooms (both with BIRs), main bathroom with separate WC, and designated laundry are zoned, and tucked privately within their own wing.
