We’ve been toying with this idea for a while now… buying a church and converting it to a photography studio. And maybe living in it.

So now we’re considering doing both. eek!

Dani’s grandmothers cousins friend sits on the board of this church out in Horning’s Mills and has let it leak that they were considering selling it. So… we visited it.

First things first… you are probably asking “where is Horning’s Mills”? It’s here:

And here is the church:

The cathedral part is acutally upstairs while the “basement” is only 3 steps down from the ground. There are 3 stairwells heading up into the cathedral, 1 in the back that the priests would use and 2 in the foyer like this one:

And here it is… this is the view as you enter from the main doors.

Here’s the view from the front – I’m standing on the altar.

Here is the altar, the choir “loft”, Ella and Gary – the inspector.

Mini-pipe organ (with leslie)… hoping to get that in the deal too 😉

And here is the living space. It’s a big empty room at the moment so we have a clean slate to do whatever we please. We’re thinking 2 rooms and a big open concept living area and dining area.

The kitchen is back there as are the 2 bathrooms.

Let the madness begin… wish us luck!
