- 0:30Speaker 3: Well, the great part about it is that all the
- 0:32Speaker 3: hard work's being done, you know, the church. Buying a church,
- 0:35Speaker 3: converting it is a dream for a lot of people.
- 0:38Speaker 3: The owners have lived it for forty years. It's in
- 0:41Speaker 3: our time for them to sell it. But the best
- 0:43Speaker 3: part is, as I've said, they end, no hard work's done.
- 0:46Speaker 3: People just have to buy it and move in.
- 0:49Speaker 2: Okay, all right, So so what does it look like now?
- 0:51Speaker 2: What does it look like on the inside.
- 0:54Speaker 3: It completely transformed from what it was as the original church.
- 0:58Speaker 3: It's been extended, it's been to the attention to detail
- 1:03Speaker 3: throughout the property is just impeccable. It's a real credit
- 1:07Speaker 3: to everyone that's been involved with the property over the years.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Yeah, And I was flicking through the photos Jason and
- 1:12Speaker 1: going through, going through love the stained glass windows, and
- 1:15Speaker 1: then I see there's a bar and a wine cellar.
- 1:18Speaker 1: This church, you know, has a bit of everything, doesn't it.
- 1:22Speaker 3: It sure does. They've they've taken a lot of a
- 1:26Speaker 3: lot of material from around the region, a recycled that
- 1:29Speaker 3: repurposed it from out of buildings, utilized it in the
- 1:34Speaker 3: extensions here. It's really hard to tell where the property,
- 1:37Speaker 3: the original property ends and the new extensions begin. Yep,
- 1:43Speaker 3: it's just beautiful to walk through.
- 1:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it absolutely is. And what's your favorite part of
- 1:48Speaker 1: the property.
- 1:50Speaker 3: I love how private it is. It's interesting from the street,
- 1:54Speaker 3: but once you get inside, it's a completely different world.
- 1:58Speaker 3: It's a central part of town, venient to all town
- 2:01Speaker 3: has to offer. Like, nobody knows whether you're home or not.
- 2:05Speaker 3: The neighbors can't see in, you can see out. It's
- 2:07Speaker 3: got a great view. But it's just very very private. Okay.
- 2:11Speaker 2: And of course being in June, it's a small country town.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Everyone knows everyone, everyone's in each other's business. There's lots
- 2:17Speaker 2: of chat going on. What's the interest been like? Like
- 2:20Speaker 2: if you walk down the main street of June there
- 2:23Speaker 2: and everyone knows that the church is for Say, what
- 2:25Speaker 2: are the locals talking about? Why are they excited?
- 2:29Speaker 3: They had that they've seen it, they know it's there,
- 2:33Speaker 3: but they really had no idea as to how intricate
- 2:36Speaker 3: how it is presented and what it's like there in
- 2:40Speaker 3: the inside itself. Except for those that obviously know the
- 2:42Speaker 3: family that have been there, it has been very private
- 2:46Speaker 3: and people are just blown away by this caliber of
- 2:50Speaker 3: property is available in town.
- 2:51Speaker 1: And who do you think it would suit? Because it's
- 2:54Speaker 1: not everyone's cup of tea, right, but who do you
- 2:56Speaker 1: think would best suit? Would you know, love this place?
- 3:01Speaker 3: It's a good size thought print, it'd be great for
- 3:03Speaker 3: a family. I really see somebody that wants to downsize
- 3:08Speaker 3: coming in off a farm, off a property where they're
- 3:11Speaker 3: still looking for that privacy that they've been even though
- 3:14Speaker 3: it's completely different to being on a farm, still very
- 3:17Speaker 3: private and an as I said, nothing needs to be done,
- 3:21Speaker 3: just move in and enjoy the property.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, And do people contact you to come and
- 3:25Speaker 1: have a look. Is that how it works?
- 3:27Speaker 3: Absolutely?
- 3:28Speaker 1: Okay, Well, people should definitely do that. It's a really
- 3:31Speaker 1: unique place, that's for sure. Jason, thank you so much.
