About This Home

As of August 2020

Here is your chance to own a unique piece of history. This beautiful turn-of-the-century church and home are move-in ready and have so many possibilities! Looking for a building for your church or how about an art studio or guest house? The church and home are beautifully updated and nicely decorated. The 1,000 sq ft house has 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath with a tile shower/tub surround. The church is over 3,000 sq ft and features a beautiful 29' x 25' kitchen/meeting room; and a 48' x 25' sanctuary, plus 5 classrooms/offices and 2 half baths. This parcel is zoned single family, meaning that you could turn the church into a home, or keep it as a church. For a day care you would simply need a special use permit. Any commercial endeavors would require a change in zoning.
