Property Description

Some buildings hold history. This one holds character you can actually live inside. Early 1900's era. For 100 years it was known as the Brora United Church. Strategically converted to a single family residence in 2014, this extraordinary residential home sits on a private acre just 9 mins north of Regina, close enough for convenience, far enough to breathe. Step inside to soaring 15 ft ceilings, dramatic 54-inch barrel cove details, architectural features that simply don’t exist in new construction. Every detail, from the extensive top-of-cabinet styling to the 10-foot electrified buffet, wired for heating trays, chafing dishes, and entertaining at scale, was considered with both beauty and function in mind. Main level full bathroom and primary loft/bedroom area could easily be separated off with custom draperies. Step outside to a 12’ x 18’ three-season sunroom elevated 10 feet above the grounds, offering sweeping prairie views and a natural gathering place in every season. The east-facing “Morning Balcony” was designed precisely for sunrise coffee. A staircase connects you to the ground level, where the landscaping honours the octagon shape of the original choir loft. A brick patio surrounds a central fire pit set within a design that incorporated over 900 used bricks in that area alone alongside four garden beds, a decorative gazebo, and a front yard pond. Beneath the heritage aesthetic is a home rebuilt from the inside out. There's 400-amp service, 200 amps to the house, with a spare 200 amps for a future garage. A drainage system manages water flow with a rainwater collection system with two 1,000L cisterns supports sustainable outdoor use. The lower level offers self-contained living quarters with exterior access: a natural fit for extended family, guests, or supplementary income complete with family room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms (one currently being used as an office) and large laundry/closet area.
