Historic Mount Prospect Church on Approx. 4,502m²
Rich in local history and positioned amongst the picturesque rolling countryside of Newlyn North, the historic Mount Prospect Church, established circa 1861, presents an exceptionally rare opportunity to secure a beautifully preserved landmark property just moments from Creswick and within easy reach of Daylesford. Set on approximately 4,502m², this striking bluestone church has been exceptionally well-maintained over the years and remains in fantastic condition, showcasing the timeless craftsmanship and character synonymous with the era.

Adding further historical significance is the separate Sunday School building, relocated from Kangaroo Hills, providing additional flexible space while enhancing the property’s rich story and character. Surrounded by scenic farmland and peaceful rural outlooks, the property enjoys the perfect balance of country tranquillity and convenience.
