Last Listing description (August 2015)

Rich in history, Hestercombe Chapel is literally one of a kind. Built by the Hobart Merchant Henry Hopkins in 1833, it is the oldest congregational church not only in Tasmania but all of Australia. Talk about making history!
A solid sandstone construction with a slightly smaller timber addition this property is remarkably well preserved, with a somewhat versatile lay out and plenty of space for interpretation.
Walking in through the front doors, you enter the first room, lined in timber with some impressive velvet curtains on an overhead track. Turning right through a red double door you will find the largest room in the chapel flooded with natural light from the beautiful arched windows at the front of the property. Unchanged for so many years, the preservation is remarkable.

The existing property is only two rooms (and an outhouse in very original condition), but the potential to make this property something amazing and notable far outweighs any work that needs to be done. You only need to google 'church conversions' to be presented with endless beautiful possibilities that will help you to breathe new life into this sweet chapel.
Set in a new homes area on 4669m2 of land, this property certainly offers a lot of space, however it must be noted that there is a grave yard on the title which will limit its use somewhat. That being said the neighbours do tend to be very quiet!
This is your opportunity to buy an incredibly unique property only 15 mins from CBD, with the benefits of history and all of the stories that come with it. If you enjoy architecture and soaring ceilings you could breathe new life into this little chapel and create a beautiful new home to be enjoyed by generations of your own family.
Please note that whilst the property has been rewired, it is not connected to sewerage.
