For a faith community seeking a place to gather, worship and grow, this substantial Hawthorn church complex offers an exceptional opportunity at an accessible asking price.
Having served its congregation and the local community for generations, the property is ready for a new custodian to continue its story. With an established church, multiple halls and supporting spaces on approximately 1,579m² of prominent corner land, there is considerable scope to bring your community together in one location.
The complex includes the original 1903 hall, the imposing 1923 church and a collection of later halls, classrooms and ancillary spaces. From worship and fellowship to meetings, education and community activities, the accommodation offers flexibility for organisations to explore according to their needs and the necessary approvals.
For congregations weighing the cost of purchasing land and constructing new facilities, this is a compelling alternative to investigate. The scale of the landholding, the range of existing buildings and the Hawthorn location combine to offer outstanding value for a purchaser prepared to undertake the work required.
The buildings remain largely in their original condition and substantial work will be needed. This is an opportunity for buyers with vision, resources and a long-term commitment to restoring and adapting a significant property.
While particularly appealing to faith and community organisations, the property may also suit buyers investigating residential conversion, consulting rooms, office accommodation, childcare or other adaptive uses, subject to the necessary consents.
Situated within the Established Neighbourhood Zone, the property is affected by Character and Local Heritage provisions. The heritage listing applies to the exterior form and fabric of the original hall and church buildings, while the later connecting building is excluded from the listing. Planning and heritage information is available to assist purchasers with their investigations.
An independent building inspection report and asbestos report are also available for review. Purchasers should obtain any further independent advice they consider necessary.
The property is offered strictly as is, including the furniture, fittings and other items remaining at the property.
Now offered at $2,500,000-$2,750,000, this is an opportunity for your faith community to secure a substantial foothold in Hawthorn and create a lasting home for generations to come.
