Sandgate Baptist Church, Victorian religious building in Sandgate, Queensland, Australia.

The Carpenter Gothic style church at 6 Flinders Parade features timber construction with a steeply pitched roof, arched windows, and decorative elements.

Built in 1887 by architect Richard Gailey, this Baptist church replaced a smaller chapel from 1872 during Sandgate's growth as a seaside resort.

The church building demonstrates the expansion of Baptist religious practices in Queensland, which began with the first services in Brisbane in 1859.

The structure underwent modifications in 1928, 1945, and 1986, transitioning from kerosene lamps to electricity while maintaining its historical characteristics.

The building served as the meeting place for Sandgate's first Masonic Lodge from 1894 to 1920 before transforming into a childcare center in 2010.
