A place to live and work, rolled into one with plenty of space no matter what you do, from sculpting to computer imaging? This amazing building has so many possibilities. With the exterior restoration just completed and some very attractive new interior spaces for living including the fully equipped kitchen, delightful bedroom, walk-in closet, and three quarter bath, and second floor bedroom suite, one can move right in while you imagine how you might like to change the other very large spaces on both floors to suit your plans and vision. The setting is pastoral with lovely mountain views in every direction. The mountain behind is owned by the Nature Conservancy to be preserved in perpetuity. Attractions in nearby Williamstown, MA or Bennington VT, are just 15 minutes away and Albany/Troy a mere 50 minutes. Easy access to all that Vermont and the Berkshires have to offer from skiing, to boating, hiking, fishing, hunting, dining, and so much more. Following the sale of the church by the Diocese in 2017, the building has benefitted from a progression of three owners each of whom have made their own contributions towards the preservation of this remarkable building. Time to take it to the next level.
