Last Listing description (November 2015)
Whether you have always wanted to own your own very special place, if you have the appetite for refurbishment and renovation, or if you just like to have a project on a 'slow burn' over a long period, then this could a once in a lifetime opportunity.
This former Catholic Church - decommissioned in 2005 - is a noteworthy and impressive building, having been designed by the ecclesiastic architects Kempson and Conolly in the first decade of the 1900's. The dimensions and quality of this building are more commonly found in large cities, so it makes it even more exceptional that the rural district of Devenish was able to commission this splendid structure.
In the era this Church was built, solid construction was expected - the walls are solid brick x 4 thicknesses. The Church is approx. 27.5m x 10.5m; the roof is 11.9m at it's peak, with an iron roof and a timber lined vaulted ceiling with exposed solid beams. There are 16 arching leadlight windows which provide beautiful light and atmosphere to the space. Truly this is a complete Church, with the raised alter, confessional box and so many original features still in place.
