Overview

Circa 1848 Former Church & Active Cemetery!

The romantic notion of owning a historic Gothic church in the country is a reality here in the picturesque rolling hills of Gretna and the small community it rests within. From a bygone era, built in 1848, this Church and surrounding active cemetery offers a unique opportunity to explore how you might convert/use this very special former church (STCA) to highlight the historic and heritage significance of the property while respecting the families and community who may visit and have loved ones resting inside the cemetery grounds. There is a well-documented history on both the Church itself and some of the many hundreds of people from all walks of life who have been laid to rest in this peaceful cemetery. Set on approx. 8094sqm of gently sloping land, any changes to this special property requires all necessary approvals from Heritage Tasmania and the Central Highlands Council. This heritage church features thick stone walls that were predominantly used and sourced locally, while the timber furnishings inside were hand carved by leading female woodcarver, Ellen Nora Payne, who was responsible for some of Tasmania's finest 20th century church carvings. Stained glass windows with cusped heads and either arched or rectangular carved label moldings above, exposed timber rafters and braced collar ties in the roof structure, these are some of the unique features that make this building so historic and fascinating when you consider the times it was built and the challenges faced in doing so.
