Charles Stewart real estate agent Leeson White said the "unique" listing with residential potential had attracted multiple prospective buyers after just five days on the market.
"We've had good interest from all over, interstate as well as local interest," he said.
"It's very well-maintained and preserved. You've got the church, then next door to that you have the hall and supper room with an open fireplace, timber floor.
"Everything inside the church will be taken out so it'll be a shell of the building which the purchaser has the option to convert into a residential property, with council approval of course."
The property will be open for inspection on Saturday at 1pm.
