If you are looking for peace and quiet, this property could literally be your sanctuary! The charisma and picturesque beauty of 56 Church Road will leave you in awe. This refurbished 1896 church has many attractive features, which includes soaring wood ceilings, original stained-glass windows, original beadboard paneling, and the church bell still rings. The 26 ornate original stained-glass windows are trimmed with gorgeous woodwork. On clear moonlit nights the interior is washed in a soft glow. The living area is open concept and much of the church character has been preserved. Doors and light fixtures were salvaged from other period churches to ensure the design was historically accurate. The kitchen features custom cabinets from a local craftsman, newer appliances (2020) and a generous pantry. A large master suite features a walk-in closet. It is virtually a new house that was built within an old structure. New electric, plumbing, heating, AC, septic........even the stained-glass windows were professionally cleaned and reglazed. Roof replaced in 2016. The owner spared no expense to bring this church back to life. Basement was wired, waterproofed, insulated, and painted. It provides additional storage or a great area for hobbies or crafts. Owner is including furnishings inherent to the church's history; other pieces may be purchased privately. The lot has been lovingly landscaped with sod, trees, shrubs and perennials. Providing a sweet sanctuary, complete within hearing distance of a babbling brook. You are not just buying a home; you are buying a piece of Blain history.
