Property Description
Embrace a piece of history with this magnificent structure, a testament to architectural grandeur and timeless elegance. Envisioned as a vacation retreat, a unique dining establishment, a charismatic antique store, or an inspirational artist's haven, this property, a former church constructed in 1866, stands proudly in the heart of downtown Phillips, Maine. Rich with original features, from the expansive stained glass windows that cast a kaleidoscope of light to the intricate tin walls and ceilings, this space breathes with an artistic soul. Marvel at the custom woodwork detailing, the grand choir loft that invites transformation into a luxurious primary suite, and the historic bell tower that echoes stories of the past. Spanning over 2900 sq ft on the main levels and a bonus 1600 sq ft basement, the possibilities are as vast as the open floor plan. The property has transitioned seamlessly from sacred space to commercial hotspot, once housing an antique shop and café. With updated heating and wiring, the foundation has been set for a new chapter. The full, dry basement comes equipped with a kitchen and 0.5 bath, presenting an opportunity for further development. Whether basking in the acoustics of the former sanctuary or indulging in the natural light that bathes every corner, this building captivates and comforts all who enter. Nestled in a picturesque New England town, this property is not just a living space but a gateway to the area's recreational offerings, including Sugarloaf, Saddleback, and Farmington.
