Originally built as St John the Baptist Catholic Church c1893, close to Castleton St C and Lake Bomoseen, more recently a spacious residence and art gallery. The property has retained much of its original character and architecture which is evident on both the interior and exterior of the bldg. Stained glass windows seen from nearly every room and no two are the same; an abundance of light fills the first floor rms w/ a wood/coal stove standing proudly in the corner. Handsome woodwork include balconies, altar railings, wood floors, and cabinetry throughout this unique home and multi level living spaces add a touch of whimsy. Two kitchens on the main level, one at the front of the home with a cozy brkfst nook overlooking passersby on Main St. The second/larger kitchen just completed a year ago has slate counter tops and offers an open concept living/dining experience. The back yard has garden space, privacy shrubs and a wonderful fire pit to gather with friends and family and stargaze!
