A century-old church that once welcomed music legends like Van Morrison and Huey Lewis has been transformed into a stunning residential estate and is now on the market for $4.4 million. Originally built in 1908 as a Presbyterian church, the structure later became a recording studio where iconic artists laid down tracks. The conversion into a private home preserved the building's soaring ceilings, original stained glass windows, and exposed wooden beams, blending historic character with modern luxury.
The property spans over 5,000 square feet and includes four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a state-of-the-art kitchen. The main living area occupies what was once the sanctuary, with dramatic 30-foot ceilings and a wall of windows that flood the space with natural light. A custom soundproofed recording studio remains on site, a nod to the building's musical past. Outside, the grounds feature a landscaped courtyard and a two-car garage.
Local real estate agents note that the home appeals to buyers seeking something unique. "It is not just a house. It is a piece of music history," said the listing agent. The church's transformation from a place of worship to a creative hub and now a residence reflects the evolving character of the neighborhood. The property is listed with Sotheby's International Realty.
