A Rare Opportunity to Reimagine a Piece of Riddells Creek History

Held quietly within the heart of Riddells Creek, this remarkable former church presents a truly rare and compelling opportunity to create a landmark lifestyle residence or considered redevelopment (STCA), defined by history, scale and extraordinary potential.

Serving the Riddells Creek community since 1864, the church was originally established in an earlier location before being thoughtfully relocated to its current position, where it continues to stand as an enduring local icon. Today, the building showcases striking period architecture, highlighted by its original bell tower, steeply pitched gabled form and a collection of stunning, unique stained glass windows that cast colour and character throughout the interior.

Set across approximately 4,082sqm of established grounds, the property offers both substance and versatility. The main church building is complemented by a separate meeting hall completed in the mid-1990s incorporating kitchen and bathroom facilities, further enhancing the scope for transformation or future use.

The scale and presence of the existing improvements invite a design-led residential conversion of distinction (STCA), while also presenting an opportunity for a thoughtful and well-considered redevelopment outcome, mindful of its history and setting. The result has the potential to be nothing short of extraordinary: a home of scale, soul and architectural significance, or an inspired new chapter for the site.

Positioned within easy reach of Melbourne and surrounded by the natural beauty of the Macedon Ranges, this is a rare chance to secure a blue-chip landholding and reimagine a meaningful piece of Riddells Creek’s story into something truly exceptional.
