Advance Notice: Unique Property Soon for Sale - Fall 2025

Welcome to a one-of-a-kind site where creativity and history meet. This extraordinary property is comprised of TWO stone buildings—formerly a church and adjacent meeting hall, now transformed into an exhibition/performance/studio hall, two apartments, and additional studio spaces. For a total of approximately 15,000 sqft (7,000 sqft & 8,000 sqft)

Since 2009 it was used as an international artist residency program and exhibition/ performance space. Over 800 artists have been part of the programs over the years.

The two buildings sit on approx 1.5 acres of land with private drive and off-street parking, across the street from the Wynantskill river.

The site was renovated for adaptive reuse in 2009 and 2014. Including new bathrooms, new bedrooms, new plumbing and electric, new loft, new roof and extensive repointing of the main facade and tower.

Inside you will find soaring 25+ foot ceilings, stained glass windows, hardwood floors, exposed stone walls, two lofts, exposed wooden-trussed ceilings, and authentic Victorian details throughout.

Unusual and unabashedly cool.

There are five bedrooms and four bathrooms in the main residential building (the large apartment is 3000 sq ft). A 3500 sq ft gallery/studio space in the other building. The ground floor makes a perfect workshop or small apartment.

We will be listing it for sale later in the year after we complete some minor updates. We are posting now to give an opportunity to ask questions, and to give optimal time (outside of the competitive market-place) to a best-use buyer, preferably in the creative field.

Will also consider rent to own type arrangements if possession is needed sooner.
