The larger residence, featured here, is a three bedroom, three bath home situated on three levels, with an extra room that can serve as an office. Charms from the original church like the soaring cathedral ceilings and leadlight windows remain. Sunlight from the north windows streams into the interior providing natural daylight for all of the floors.
The indoor lap pool on the bottom floor even has an internal terrace overlooking it so family and friends can watch the fun below. Radiant floor heating, a marble kitchen and italian stone tiles up the ante in the 312 sq m (3,358 sq ft) home. Off the back of the church, each residence enjoys its own private terrace.
