Nothing like a simulated pair of drowning horses to get you in the worshipful mood.

There’s a lot more than the chapel to this property…

A LOT more.

This majestic northwest lodge sports over 21,000 square feet and sits on over 160 acres.

And whoa. That view.

I don’t have $19 million, but if I did, dang would I be tempted.

The listing agent selling this disused church building is apparently enamored with this sign.

Only 15 photos and three of them are progressively closer shots of the sign.

Okay, we get it. There used to be a church that met here.

Wow. This dark hallway really gives me a lot of useful information about this $275,000 Pennsylvania listing.

Um… Okay, what happened here?

Oh did I mention this is a church building? Apparently a relatively long-abandoned church building.

While the setting looks rather remote in the photos, it’s apparently in the middle of a residential neighborhood, right next to a freeway. Still don’t think I’d touch this one with a ten foot pole, based on the photos…

This rural Massachusetts church building has its own website: The Steeple

As the site’s name implies, they’re sort of obsessed with the steeple.

I have to admit though, the fact that they appear to have a still-functioning church bell is pretty awesome.

Not really sure what’s up with the black fixtures in the bathroom, though. Or why the bathroom is carpeted. Or why the bathroom has a large, non-frosted window to the neighboring room.

Oh also, did we forget to mention that The Steeple also comes with the Eye of Sauron? Don’t worry, you’ll barely notice him.

I somewhat doubt that when this place was built it was originally occupied by the “Church of Divine Man Spiritual Teaching Center.”

It does have all the features of a classic church building though.

A big stained-glass window…

A full-on sanctuary…

Even a run-down church office.

I’m not sure if anyone told the congregation at the Spiritual Teaching Center about this sale, because their website seems to indicate business as usual with Meditation, Healing, Clairvoyance, and Kundalini Classes all still humming along.

$625,000 and it’s yours. Of course if you’re going to buy it the clairvoyant sellers probably already know, so no need to call your real estate agent. The seller’s agent will call you.

From the listing description:

Mount Auburn Village is a friendly little community of just 14 custom condos, created within & beside historic 1899 stone church. It’s 3 miles west of Harvard Sq, & 1/3 mi. east of Watertown Sq, , in the ‘best part of town’.

From a Redfin agent who toured the home:

This unit in a converted church offers exceptional craftsmanship but a layout that doesn’t really work for most people. Smallish master bedroom and bath.Very odd addition of an electric fireplace.to grand room seems out of place. The bell tower unit is much more interesting.

Here’s the listing for the tower unit (which has just one bedroom).

I can definitely see the “exceptional craftsmanship” the Redfin agent talked about.

…and the odd layout.
