For sale for the first time since it was resurrected from a historic church 10 years ago, this luxurious 103 sqm^ 2-3 bedroom apartment is a stunning mix of grandeur and chic in the heart of Newtown. It's one of only five in a unique showcase of unparalleled character and sophistication - that has been fully renovated - that's as much a landmark as the original ''church on the hill'' that stood previously for 130 years. Features include:

- Two deluxe double-bedrooms with double-wardrobes and extraordinary loft space, complete with bespoke wooden ladder for access and lovely west-facing town belt view from the master
- Versatility of an optional third bedroom, generous work-from-home space, or a media room
- Breathtaking open-plan living/dining with oversized double-doors to a private, sunny, gated courtyard and entertainers' kitchen with walk-in pantry and island breakfast bar
- Grand character that combines an exceptionally high stud upstairs and down with tongue-and-groove hardwood ceilings, ornate timber trusses, deep margin light sash windows and spectacular native timber joinery
- Superbly appointed throughout, including bathroom with polished floorboards and sublime copper-rose mosaic tiling, plus bonus of split-level powder room
- Sympathetic yet practical Novak+Middleton conversion that's earthquake-strengthened the former St James Presbyterian Church to 100% of the Building Code
- Buyer Enquiry Over $850,000

This truly is a heaven-sent opportunity for professionals, empty nesters and anyone who wants to downsize in style handy to everything from Newtown's shops and hospitals to the city, south coast and the motorway. Call Emma Young Team or come to the next scheduled open home.
