207 N Main St, Artesian, SD 57314

A very unique property. Restore this historic church building and addition rooms (parish hall, kitchen, etc.) in a tiny, quaint, rural town. No HOA. Highly rated school district (H.S. rated 10/10) and low property taxes ($353.32 in 2024). Endless reconfiguration possibilities: residence, hunting lodge, antiques shop, BnB, summer house, off-grid retreat. Approximately 2500 square feet on lots near Main St. Church sanctuary has hardwood floors, beautiful clear glass light fixtures, pretty windows and great natural light. In the past many years, property has been a residence for an offbeat artist, with work rooms for silver jewelry making, wood carving, carpentry and also for storage - and until recently, housed a1946 Piper Cub airplane. Has a beautiful steeple, but extensive wood damage underneath, causing it to list. Where the plane sat, the floor is sagging into the crawl space. The property needs extensive clean out and restoration work, but potentially with great rewards. One bedroom was framed out, but not finished. One bathroom needs to be gutted. A small porch frame in back was added on with a floor door leading to a cinderblock basement that holds two water storage tanks. For water source, tap into a shared well, drill your own, collect rainwater or BYOW. Has electric. To be sold AS IS. Too many gems and quirks to list here. Serious inquiries only via email. Note: the address on Zillow is slightly off, but location on map is accurate. Square footage listed are estimates. This property is "outside the box."
