7 S Main St, UNION BRIDGE

Built in 1882, this 3,676 SF traditional brick church is located in historic downtown Union Bridge. This turnkey property is an ideal home for a small and growing congregation, offering plenty of flexible space for meeting, ministry, and education. The upper-level sanctuary offers a vaulted ceiling with ornate woodwork, beautiful stained-glass windows, carpet over hardwood floors, and pew seating for 150.

The main level of the church features a spacious multi-purpose room with full kitchen. This 1,350 SF space is ideal for multiple types of ministry, fellowship, or even just a cozy cup of coffee. The kitchen, installed in 2021, includes cherry cabinets and stainless-steel appliances. There are five offices/classrooms (some of which are currently configured as sleeping and living spaces, and can be easily adapted for other uses), two walk-in storage rooms, and 1.5 baths and laundry room with washer and dryer.

Both levels of the church are heated and cooled with four new mini-split units, a new water softening system and 50 gallon water heater. All the upgrades were installed in 2021/2022. The church roof is believed to have been replaced in 2015 with new plywood and 50-year shingles. The building is served by public water and sewer.

Sitting on 0.25 acres, the property has a small rear yard and space for off-street parking for 2 to 3 vehicles. Metered street parking and public parking lots are located nearby (meters in force Mon - Sat 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.). The exterior wheelchair ramp provides direct access to the main-level multi-purpose room, and there is a motorized chair lift to the upper sanctuary (condition of the chairlift is unknown; the seller makes no guarantees related to the maintenance or functionality of the chair lift.)

The property has a zoning certificate that specifies the following use: a church, rectory, and place of residence by owner. Please inquire with the town of Union Bridge with any zoning and use questions.
