Overview

This unique residence in Coorparoo is a rare architectural transformation of a historic c.1912 church, relocated from Nanango and set on a substantial 809sqm parcel. The home's design masterfully incorporates the original church's authentic features, including faithfully reproduced arched windows and frames, reclaimed timber from the church's stage, and repurposed ironwork, reflecting a deep commitment to sustainability and preserving heritage.

The dwelling seamlessly blends traditional elements with modern craftsmanship, employing basalt sourced from Northern NSW, warm timber finishes, and expansive glazing that invites natural light and promotes ventilation. The site is enhanced by thoughtfully landscaped gardens featuring a creek, multiple ponds, and a fishpond with a bridge, creating a tranquil and dynamic outdoor environment.

Inside the original church, soaring cathedral ceilings over 6 metres high define a grand living and dining area, offering both spaciousness and intimacy. Water features such as double-sided aquariums and waterfall installations border the gourmet ILVE kitchen, enhancing the ambiance during meal preparation and entertaining.

The home offers diverse living spaces, including an elevated terrace with city and mountain views, a private grotto with a heated magnesium pool, and a barbecue kitchen ideal for social gatherings. Innovative features such as a temperature-controlled wine cellar with an epoxy stone floor and a glass floor pantry above provide unique luxury experiences.

With five bedrooms, including a loft-style primary suite with walk-in robe and ensuite, and additional flexible rooms like a guest lounge and office, the residence suits those who appreciate heritage charm combined with contemporary lifestyle amenities. A lift serving all floors adds convenience and accessibility.
