Watervale's spiritual home since it was constructed and consecrated C1907, the Anglican Church of St Mary's will always hold a special place in the heart (literally) of a storied town that waves hello to those passing by on the Epicurean Way.
This is your chance to write its next hymn.
The Northern Connector ensures this quaint town - with an award-winning pub, kitchen garden, general store and several small batch wineries dotted on its gum-studded periphery - has never been closer to Adelaide. No more than 90 minutes.
The years have been kind to this enduring stone-laden dwelling set back on its 2555sqm plot to make its nave a peaceful space of prayer and contemplation.
Ponder the many ways in which you can reinvent this light-filled structure with a quaint entry hall, heavenly high cathedral ceilings, arched leadlight windows, ornate timber detailing and the original Sanctus bell on its roof.
Could it become a considered home conversion that opens its charming doors to weary, wine-loving travellers? Or perhaps a labor of love project that steals you away from the city and becomes your very own weekender?
If it isn't a home, it could be a function centre, art gallery or remain as a community-uniting hub, whether holy or not, in a tight-knit town that sits just 15kms south of Clare's township. A warm welcome to Watervale. Whatever you want it to be.
