A Pocketful of Heaven

In the peaceful village of Tuapeka Mouth, a truly unique sanctuary awaits at Saint Augustine Church, where character, simplicity and comfort come together for inspiration.

Bathed in natural light, this beautifully reimagined former church showcases original features including stained-glass windows, thoughtfully balanced with contemporary upgrades and open-plan living. The sunny north-facing aspect, combined with a wood burner as the primary heat source, creates an atmosphere that feels invitingly spacious and wonderfully toastie through the cooler months.

Large double-glazed sliding doors open out to an expansive, private deck, ideal for relaxing or entertaining, with fencing providing a sense of peace and privacy.

As evening falls, the wood-heated spa pool becomes the ultimate place to unwind beneath the exceptionally dark, pristine night skies. Stargazing here is outstanding, with the occasional “train of lights” gliding silently overhead.

The off-grid property is powered by nine solar panels and gas, with roof-collected rainwater. Further upgrades include electrical improvements, a refurbished roof and insulation, along with a thoughtfully updated kitchen featuring modern appliances (included), gas cooking and a granite benchtop. Additional enhancements comprise a heated outdoor shower, a separate outdoor toilet building, and a new septic system ready to be connected to the new kitchen and indoor bathroom (all STCA). Most of the hard work has been done in preparation for conversion to residential living subject to council requirements.

Set on a fully fenced, level section of approximately 4,199sqm (+/-), the property is pet-friendly and thoughtfully landscaped with established trees, a developing food forest, useful outbuildings, rainwater storage, and ample space for vegetable gardens, chooks, a few farmyard woollies, creative projects, and RV storage. This generous land was originally used to park horse-drawn carriages when the church was built, a charming nod to a slower era. The surrounding rural setting brings a deep sense of tranquillity, with sheep, cows and horses nearby completing the country atmosphere.

Built in 1918, Saint Augustine Church has stood through generations in an area steeped in history. The nearby Tuapeka Punt (the Clutha Interislander) adds further character, while the wider landscape is rich in gold-mining heritage, with gold historically found throughout the surrounding area, though the church grounds themselves have never been prospected. A local swimming pool offering seasonal passes provides a much-loved community hub during the warmer months. Practicality is well catered for, with the school bus stopping right at the gate, Clutha Valley Primary just 10 minutes away, and South Otago High School approximately 25 minutes in Balclutha.

Centrally located, Tuapeka Mouth is around 25 minutes to Lawrence and approximately one hour to Dunedin Airport, a central secret for those seeking peace, balance and connection.

Perfect for creative souls, city escapees, lifestyle seekers or anyone craving calm in a busy world, this special property offers heart, history and opportunity in equal measure.
