The 1800s church building rests solidly on sandstone foundations and features near perfect original red brick construction with soaring timber trusses and beautiful original stained and lead-light windows. There are original double doors, an entry, a Blackwood timber kitchen with gas cooking, a bathroom with shower, toilet and storage, 2 bedrooms, one on the altar and the other upstairs with views of the township. There is reverse cycle air, combustion wood heating and a huge open plan living space with hardwood timber floors. The grounds features brick pathways, some stone walling, shade trees, a double garage, outside toilet and a studio/games room space. Located a block back from the centre sports oval of Guildford, the property is an easy walk to the local General Store and the local Pub. The delights of Castlemaine and Daylesford are all just a short drive too. Noted as a Victorian, rudimentary, gothic style church, the property was sold out of the church hands in 1973 and has been enjoyed by just a few passionate owners since.
