Церква преподобного Серафима Саровського збудована у дачному селищі Пуща-Водиця під Києвом у 1910 році на пожертвування дачевласників, серед яких було чимало заможних киян.

Архітектор Іполит Ніколаєв спроєктував храм у формах неоренесансу на кшталт існуючої у Києві на Липках Олександро-Невської церкви.

Серафимівська церква була закрита радянською владою в 1930-тих роках і знову відкрита в 1943 році, після чого богослужіння не переривалися. Після Другої світової війни іконостас було відновлено та реконструйовано. У 2000-2003 роках проведено реставрацію.

За переказами, у каплиці на церковному подвір'ї поховано банкіра Володимира Козакевича, який зробив найбільший внесок у будівництво церкви.

На території є святе джерело.
