For anyone seeking a sign from above to kickstart their tree change adventure, then buying a former place of worship could be the guiding light they\u2019re after.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Congregations around the world have been offloading lesser frequented churches for years but as time passes it has become harder to find those hallowed renovator\u2019s delights that are still considered to be immaculately blank canvases.<\/p>\n

Across the country there are currently several churches (and former faithful spaces) listed with varying price tags and differing states of renovation so there is something for everyone – from the wannabe AirBnb believer to the DIY devotee.<\/p>\n

The former St David\u2019s Church and adjoining hall has been reimagined as a yoga studio, although the versatile property could become any number new businesses. Zoned B1, the property isn\u2019t currently set up to be a home, but could potentially be a family residence or even a unique short term holiday spot with council approval.<\/p>\n

Built in the 1930s, the landmark Methodist Church just outside of Kempsey was decommissioned in 1992 and then transformed into a unique home with plenty of spirit. It still has all the charm of yesteryear with high decorative ceilings and ivy-covered external walls as well as cobblestone paths and a grand old Camphor Laurel tree in the yard.<\/p>\n
