This Roscoe Village Estate Used to Be a Church — Bell Tower and All
Asking $6,500,000, this converted corner church in the heart of Roscoe Village spans two city lots and roughly 10,000 square feet, with five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and two full kitchens. Reddit called it a property "from your dreams, or nightmares" — either way, nobody's calling it boring.
The Nave Is Now the Living Room
The former nave has been transformed into a living room with 25-foot vaulted ceilings, original beams, and restored stained glass windows filtering natural light across new herringbone oak floors. An interior staircase climbs to the bell tower, offering sweeping neighborhood views — and, per one commenter, the ideal spot for a home gym, if you don't mind getting your reps in with a little added reverence.
A Rooftop Terrace and a Garage Nobody Could Find
The dining room opens onto a private rooftop terrace tucked behind the building's crenellated parapet, while the lower level holds a family room with a wet bar and catering kitchen. The listing does note an attached two-car garage, though Reddit initially couldn't spot it in either the photos or the floorplan — a quick Google Street View check confirmed it's there, just not pictured.
