Envisioned as a vacation retreat, a unique dining establishment, a charismatic antique store, or an inspirational artist's haven, this property, a former church constructed in 1866, stands proudly in the heart of downtown Phillips, Maine. Rich with original features, from the expansive stained glass windows that cast a kaleidoscope of light to the intricate tin walls and ceilings, this space breathes with an artistic soul. Marvel at the custom woodwork detailing, the grand choir loft that invites transformation into a luxurious primary suite, and the historic bell tower that echoes stories of the past. Spanning over 2900 sq ft on the main levels and a bonus 1600 sq ft basement, the possibilities are as vast as the open floor plan.
