The unique combination of two heritage properties on one title is now available in Fryerstown, a vibrant Goldfields village close to Castlemaine. Set on a 1.4 acre block within the township, The brick Old Methodist Church was built in 1861 in the Victorian Early English Gothic style and the prefabricated wooden courthouse was transported from England in the 1850s, ending up at its current site in the 1870s for use as the Methodist Church Hall (one of only 3 now in existence). Step into the spectacular brick church which is fully open-plan, with high windows, exposed timber beams, original floorboards, kitchen, laundry/bathroom, a claw foot bath under the arch windows and wood heater. The former courthouse is also used as a dwelling with a compact kitchen, modern shower room, and bed/living room with split system and wood heater; a perfect weekender or Airbnb. Outside is a paved entertainment space, mature olive trees, several large shade trees and the lightly treed block extends to a separate access road, giving the perfect feeling of being in the bush, yet within the village and Crown land next door. Connected to mains power and water within the Township Zone, it’s an easy 12-minute drive to Castlemaine and closer to Chewton; opportunities like this are a rare find.
