One of Baltimore's most iconic churches, Mt. Vernon Place United Methodist, is being offered for sale. Built in 1872, this beautiful Norman-Gothic house of worship is located in the heart of Historic Mt. Vernon -- adjacent to the Washington Monument and across the plaza from the Peabody Institute. T...he church is approximately 24,000+ SF over three levels. The ±900-seat main sanctuary boasts a balcony, handcrafted pews, ornate stained-glass windows, and an elaborate ceiling and plasterwork. The organ is an MP Moller Opus R-524, with 2600 pipes, installed in 1956 (needs servicing). Behind the sanctuary is the chapel, with seating for ±40, a small kitchen, storage, a meeting room/classroom, and a large meeting space, currently used for worship. On the upper level is Davis Hall, a large multi-purpose room with balcony -- seating capacity of ±250. In the lower level is a full-size fellowship hall, currently built-out as a child care facility (which would require the installation of sprinklers should a daycare wish to operate there in future). There is also a large commercial kitchen, meeting space, and storage. Heat is provided by a boiler; cooling includes ceiling fans and window units (no central air). Recent repairs include plumbing and slate roof; the property suffers from deferred maintenance, and will require a certain amount of repair and maintenance work. As a component of the purchase price -- which has been significantly reduced -- the purchaser will be asked to accommodate a lease allowing sufficient area for the Mt. Vernon Place United Methodist congregation of ±25 to hold weekly worship, and maintain a Pastor's office. The lease term will be 7 years, with 7 renewal periods (each 7 years). Additional details are available upon request. This is a sale only: there is no option to lease. The church is a nationally-registered historic site, part of the Mt Vernon Historic District; exterior alterations are not permitted. The property is zoned OR-2. It would be highly unlikely that a developer would be permitted to repurpose the property for residential or most commercial uses. The seller makes no representation regarding condition, zoning, or use. Owner financing may be available for a buyer who wishes to use the property as a house of worship. Ask agent for details on financing terms. Showings available with registration and qualification. Seller will begin reviewing term sheets (offers) September 16, 2024. If you are not represented by an agent, please reqest a term sheet from the listing agent.
