Have you ever dreamed of living in a church? Or redeveloping one into a multifamily or mixed use property for home and business? THIS is your opportunity! Stunning architecture in this 1890 former Catholic church with steeple and stained glass windows. Prior owner made major structural improvements, including adding a second floor, and new wiring. Current owner removed 2 tons of plaster and added insulation (extra materials are yours!). There's a beautiful one bedroom, one bath apartment on the first floor, completely livable while you work on finishing the rest of the interior. Zoning allows for single family residence, multifamily up to 8 units (though it's easiest to envision 2, 3 or 4 units), and a variety of commercial uses including but not limited to retail, gallery, child care or community center, hotel or service establishment, professional office and light manufacturing. Nestled in the valley at the base of a mountain, the mountain views are stunning in every direction. The 0.86 acres of level land includes a large parking lot and lush backyard for a natural retreat. Across the street from a Christmas tree farm and a short walk to the little league field and North Pownal post office. Only a 15 min commute to Bennington or Williamstown, MA. Would be an incredible development project for those who want a unique investment residence and are not afraid to think outside the box. Floor plans available. Contact a buyer's agent and schedule a private tour.
