Escape the city life for peaceful living in one of the most unique buildings to come on the market - the 'Our Lady Of Rosary' Wee Jasper Church, less than one hour from Yass and the NSW/ACT border.
Surrounded by gums, within walking distance to the Goodradigbee River and located at the foot of the Brindabella Ranges, Wee Jasper is a small village with a big reputation for its relaxed, rural lifestyle - but there's also plenty of adventure.
The Wee Jasper Reserves are famous for being one of NSW's best camping locations, with easy access to a range of hiking trails, fishing and kayaking.
There are more than 100 ancient limestone caves in the area, but a favourite remains Carey's Cave, which attracts hundreds of visitors each year.
However, if relaxing at a winery is more your thing, Canberra District's renowned wine region is a short drive away, but keep your eyes open for the launch of the Wee Jasper Distillery in January 2022.
Converted into a home, the church would make an ideal base for all these experiences as either an accommodation venture or as a sanctuary for anyone looking for a quieter lifestyle.
Since it was built in 1954, the solid brick church has seen many baptisms, communions and weddings celebrated within its walls.
Featuring traditional arched windows, double entrance doors and peaked ceiling, this unique building is flooded with natural light.
Located just 200m from the Wee Jasper Public School and less than 100m from the Hume and Hovell Walking Track, a slower paced lifestyle will be an easy transition to make.
Just how loved the church was by the local community is evident in the foundation stone, which reads: "Built by the united effort of the people of this district".
However, stretched resources means the time has come for the church to be passed on so it can have a new lease on life.
