20 School Road, Evansford, VIC 3371

Set quietly within the rolling landscape of Evansford, this former church (circa 1909) has been thoughtfully adapted into a warm and character-rich retreat, where original detail meets relaxed country living. Positioned within the scenic Pyrenees Shire, the property captures the essence of the region-open skies, lightly treed surrounds and a sense of space that feels relaxing and remote while remaining within easy reach of Clunes, Talbot, Avoca, Maryborough & Ballarat. The home retains much of its original charm. Timber floors run underfoot, complemented by timber dado-lined walls and classic sash windows that draw in soft natural light. The proportions reflect its past life, now softened into a comfortable and flexible layout suited to weekend stays or longer escapes. Accommodation includes two bedrooms, the master - a loft-style upper level that adds further versatility. A simple galley kitchen is equipped with an electric upright stove, double sink and walk-in pantry, while the living space centres around a wood heater, supported by ceiling fan comfort and ambient downlighting. Practical elements have been carefully integrated, including a shower room with separate loo, rear laundry, tank water storage (approx. 22,000L), satellite NBN and a grey water system. The home was repainted in recent times in a palette that nods to its Presbyterian heritage, preserving its identity while refreshing its presentation. Outdoors, the offering expands across lightly treed 2-acres, fenced for stock and suited to hobby use or quiet enjoyment. A north-east facing deck provides a natural place to begin the day, while a separate, more recent sleepout/bungalow-crafted with repurposed materials-creates additional accommodation or workspace, complete with its own deck oriented toward the western sunset. The surrounding community is quietly connected, known for its welcoming nature and low-key gatherings, including regular local activities that reflect the area's easy rhythm of life. This is a home that doesn't seek perfection-it offers something more enduring. A sense of place, a connection to its past, and the freedom to shape what comes next.
