In July, the Presbyterian Church in Yerong Creek was put up for sale after attempts to revive dwindling attendance numbers failed.

The local progress association is currently determining whether the community could buy the property.

But it's not the only Riverina house of God up for sale. Here's a look at just a few places of worship in the region that could be yours.

A little over six decades after it came into being, Tallimba's church sits empty and ready for a new lease on life. The Anglican church was built in 1958 and the brick and tile shell is the perfect starting point for a very 2019 conversion. It'll be sold with no inclusions or stained glass windows, but don't let that deter you. Pack your bags, load up the moving van, saddle the horses - whatever it takes.

Some might balk at the idea of living in an old church but for others, it's a dream come true. The foundation stone for Ungarie's old Anglican church, St Dunstan's, was laid in 1922 and was finished and licensed in September 1924. Almost a century later, it's in need of a new owner. It's huge inside, with beautiful high ceilings you could do wonders with in the future - just let your imagination run wild.
