This heavenly house was once an Illinois church. Check out the ‘most magical space’
It’s not unusual to see houses that were once houses of worship popping up all over the real estate market these days, but some have stood out after they were converted. Like this Missouri house that was once a Gothic church, or this residence that has “a Sistine Chapel-like interior.”
Now this three-bedroom, four-bathroom house that’s listed for $375,000 in Carlinville, Illinois, can be added to that list.
“You have to see this renovated church house to believe it-it is simply AMAZING,” the listing on Zillow.com says.
The photos show vivid colors which help visually expand the already vast spaces in the 6,300-square-foot residence. Chandeliers, cathedral-high ceilings and religious paintings can be seen throughout the home, giving it a divine feel.
Features include:
Laundry room
Stained glass windows
Grand fireplace
Formal dining room
Terrazzo flooring
“This is definitely a rare and special opportunity to own a most magical space,” the listing said.
Carlinville is about 60 miles northeast of St. Louis.
