About This Home

The expansive open-concept design offers 4284 sq ft with 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, large kitchen and walk-in pantry, a generous recreation room complete with pool table, a dramatic bell tower, and an airy loft space add to the architectural poetry of this sanctuary-turned-home. Steps from downtown's vibrant art scene, galleries, and cafes. If you're looking for a property with profound history, architectural beauty, and endless creative potential - this is it!
