Description

A rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully restored historic church transformed into a one-of-a-kind single-family residence. This Stanwood property blends architectural character with modern livability, offering an experience unlike anything else on the market. Original stained-glass windows fill the space with natural light, highlighting restored hardwood floors and preserved craftsmanship that honor the building's history. The open, flowing layout balances dramatic architectural elements with everyday comfort, creating spaces that feel both inspiring and welcoming. With 4 spacious bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, over 2,000 square feet above grade, and nearly 1,200 square feet of finished lower-level living space, the home adapts easily to a variety of lifestyles. Whether envisioned as a distinctive primary residence, a creative retreat, or an Airbnb opportunity, the flexible layout and memorable design create a setting that guests and owners alike won't forget. Unique properties like this are increasingly sought after for boutique-style hosting, offering both personal enjoyment and potential income appeal. Located in a quiet small-town setting just 15 minutes from Big Rapids and within convenient reach of Ferris State University, Canadian Lakes, Tullymore Golf Course, Brower Park on Hardy Dam, and outdoor recreation, this property offers peaceful living with modern accessibility. This is more than a home, it's a chance to live inside architecture, surrounded by history, light, and character, with opportunities limited only by imagination.
