Once in a lifetime opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind property in the charming community of Cabery! This beautifully updated and meticulously maintained former church has been thoughtfully converted into a stunning 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home offering approximately 5,139 square feet of living space and comes fully furnished! From the moment you step inside, you'll be captivated by the breathtaking stained glass windows, soaring ceilings, grand lighting, gorgeous hardwood floors, updated vinyl flooring, and incredible original woodwork that make this property unlike anything else on the market. Even the original church bell remains fully functional, adding even more charm and history to this remarkable property. The main level was masterfully designed to preserve the character and history of the church while creating an inviting and functional living space. The amazing kitchen and spacious dining room are perfect for hosting gatherings of all sizes. Grand pocket doors open into the expansive living and entertainment room-once home to rows of wooden pews-now transformed into the ultimate space for making memories featuring a pool table, shuffleboard, movie theater seating with a large TV, and even a golf simulator (available for additional purchase). The possibilities continue in the large basement complete with a second kitchen, half bath, abundant storage, and a French drain system allowing the space to be comfortably used for additional living space. Let your imagination run wild with the potential to create additional bedrooms, recreational areas, or even a separate unit with its own private entrance. Situated on a corner lot with plenty of parking, this property also includes a fenced backyard, new shed, and riding lawn mower. This extraordinary property is packed with character, space, and endless possibilities-you truly have to see everything this incredible home has to offer before it's gone!
